TV ratings in Vancouver questioned
Article Abstract:
The Vancouver Media Directors' Council (VMDC) has expressed concern about the ineffective method by which the BBM people meter is measuring reach. Karen Hallam, president of Hallamedia in Vancouver, Canada, and co- president of the VMDC, said that measuring reach according to a one-minute audience is not an effective method. Jack Tomick, vice president, sales and marketing at CanWest Television Inc, said the concerns on reach raised by media directors are not really an issue from the perspective of broadcasters.

Chatelaine takes issue with PMB
Article Abstract:
Chatelaine publisher Donna Clark does not accept PMB Print Measurement Bureau's report that subscriptions have declined drastically from 1995 to 2000. Clark prefers to believe the results of Roper Reports Canada's 1999 Fall study. She claims that there is less volatility to the numbers provided by the Roper study. She expects readership decline to stop within 24 months and an increase in the readership of the 25-to-49 age group.
