Kühne Ansage

Dabei wird vor allem das Nachrichten-Portal oe24.at immer stärker: oe24.at (ohne die anderen ÖSTERREICH-Online-Angebote wie zum Beispiel wetter.at) verzeichnete im Nachrichten-starken Februar (mit Olympia) laut Google Analytics bereits 1.230.993 „Unique Clients“. Damit macht oe24.at, wenn man die doppelt gezählten „Unique Clients“ herausrechnet, also bereits die Hälfte des oe24-Netzwerks aus.

Kühne Aussagen auf der Basis der letzten ÖWA Zahlen (und wahrscheinlich von Google Analytics) macht OE24.at, wenn gleichzeitig Google Trends for Websites solches Zeug zu bieten hat.

Quotes from History, II, the UK

We attach great important to the maintenance of a high standard of broadcast programmes, with continuous efforts to secure improvement, and we think that advertisements would lower the standard. The broadcasting of advertisements on a large scale would tend to make the service unpopular, and thus defeat its own ends. ... The time which could be devoted to advertising should in any case be very limited, and, therefore, exceedingly valuable; and the operating authorities, who would want revenue, would naturally prefer the big advertiser who was ready to pay highly, with the result that only he would get a chance of advertising. This would be too high a privilege to give to a few big advertisers at the risk of lowering the general standard of broadcasting. We consider, however, that there would be no objection to the operating concern being allowed to accept the gift of a concern and to broadcast a preliminary announcement giving the name of the donor; and also to broadcast the name of the publisher and the price of a song which is about to be broadcast.

Quotes from History, I, the US

Broadcasting stations are licensed to serve the public and not for the purpose of furthering the private or selfish interests of individuals or groups of individuals. The standard of public interest, convenience, or necessity means nothing if it does not mean this. The only exception that can be made to this rule has to do with advertizing; the exception, however, is only apparent because advertizing furnishes the economic support for the service and thus makes it possible. As will be pointed out below, the amount and character of advertizing must be rigidly confined within the limits consistent with the service expected from the station
