Congratulations, Bing Chen.

💥 In 1939, a significant milestone was reached in the world of home entertainment. 📺 Americans were introduced to Television for the very first time at an exhibit sponsored by RCA at the New York World's Fair. ➡️ This event marked a turning point in the history of broadcasting, as it paved the way for a new era of visual communication. The exhibit was designed to showcase the latest advances in technology, and television quickly became the star attraction. Visitors were able to witness the magic of this new medium firsthand, as they watched moving images and listened to sound being transmitted over the airwaves. The experience was nothing short of revolutionary, as it represented a quantum leap forward in the way people consumed news and entertainment. 🔥 The impact of the introduction of television at the New York World's Fair was felt immediately. 🔜 Within a few years, television sets were being manufactured on a mass scale, and programming was being broadcast to millions of homes across the country. This led to a dramatic shift in the way people consumed news and entertainment, as television became the dominant form of media in many households. 📍 Today, television remains an important medium of communication and entertainment, and its impact on our lives continues to be felt in countless ways. #television #innovation #news #milestones #technology #broadcasting #newyork #america #entertainment #media #communication #soundnodes

Fading Silver Screen: Will Hollywood Exploit Black Audiences Again for Its Next Bailout? In the past decade, streaming giants like Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+, and Hulu have profoundly transformed the entertainment landscape, posing an existential threat to Hollywood's traditional movie theatre business. These platforms have adeptly capitalized on the evolving viewing habits of audiences; offering unprecedented convenience, diverse talent and content, and instant access that the old Hollywood studio system, clinging to its antiquated business model, struggles to compete against. However, beneath the fading lenses, lies a troubling trend - a recurring reliance on African American audiences as a financial lifeline. Is Hollywood’s slight shift towards diversity simply another exploitative act in times of trouble? How are these changes affecting the industry and is the recurring pattern of Hollywood exploiting African American audiences in times of financial struggle still a reliably bankable strategy?

For any fellow public radio nerds out there, yesterday's Marketplace Morning Report on NPR had a great segment on how "diversity is simply good business." I couldn't agree more, and I'm glad the research supports it! We support DEI initiatives because they are the right thing to do, but they are also good for the bottom line. And you'll hear in the segment that the research conducted reports that CEOs across political ideologies acknowledge that DEI is good for business. (It starts around the 5:20 mark and is a quick listen.) https://lnkd.in/gqxhEgmY

The last two days at the CIMM Summit in New York have been fascinating. The simple fact that hundreds of advertising execs have come into town a week before Ad Week should let you know how important this is. My four takeaways: 1. The multicurency world is here. 2. The TV sector really wants transparency 3. Identity is going to be the next big thing 4. We’ve got to have more than reach Read more here... https://lnkd.in/e4PysW-p
