– If you want your NFL online…legally, that is… the league is splitting with CBS Sportsline and launching its own site to offer its library of video.

– The UK’s KateModern is the answer to LonelyGirl15. Viewers and brands seem to like it. Hmm. Not as cute as Bree.

– Diversity rocks the apple cart which is why things won’t change until a new cart arrives. Sadly, we couldn’t agree more.

– Internet “audio” trumps terrestrial radio and it’s not a bad thing.

– The latest idiocy in agency renaming: GSD&M Idea City.

– Despite real world bridge disasters, bridge ad disasters continue to appear.

– Why is everyone writing about ad blocking software today when the technology’s been around for, oh, ten years?

– The Newspaper Association of America reported quarterly newspaper ad revenue is down 8.6 percent to $11.3 billion.
