This Graph Is Disastrous for Print and Great for Facebook—or the Opposite!
If you work anywhere near media, you’ll want to take a long look at this graph. It tells you where Americans direct our attention (in BLUE) and where advertisers pay money to capture our attention (in RED).
- Takeaway #1: We still love TV.
- Takeaway #2: Advertisers still love print.
- Takeaway #3: Audiences move faster than advertisers.
According to this chart — adapted from a Mary Meeker slideshow excerpted by Bill Gross — we spend more time engaging with mobile devices than reading print. But print publications still get 25-times more ad money than mobile. Either the eyeballs are moving faster than the advertisers, who will eventually stop paying for print … or the ad teams don’t think a minute spent around mobile ads is worth a minute spend around print ads. Those aren’t mutually exclusive.
We can take this chart in a lot of directions. Could print see another mass exodus of money? Is mobile advertising about to explode?

Cat Rules Monopoly Town With an Iron Fist
Residents of Monopoly Town have had a rough go of things ever since electing Willy McKitty to be mayor. Willy, the five year old heir to the McKitty scratching post fortune and local real estate investor, has governed the town with the calculated efficiency of a dedicated capitalist. While his office claims that cuts to social programs and what his spokespeople deem “unfortunate sacrifices” are necessary, others aren’t so sure.
“After the massive round of layoffs at Water Works last year, he declared the Free Parking lottery off-limits to anyone who was delinquent on their mortgage,” complained concerned citizen Tiffany O’Malley. ”He even threw a bunch of people in jail in December for trying to pass Go early and he runs Marvin Gardens like a slum lord. I say, down with Willy!”
Some citizens are trying to organize a recall election this November. McKitty still has two years left on his term.
