The vibe at the Philadelphia NAB
…according to FigMedia1’s Bill Figenshu:
Everyone fell into one of three camps: 1. The guest speakers that told the attendance of the upcoming changes, the consequences for radio, and the admonishment to “wake up” before it’s too late. 2. Radio leaders that told the attendance of the upcoming changes, how well radio is responding,and, uh, how well radio is, uh, well, we’re radio, people will listen, because, uh, we’re radio. Ok? Ok! Gotta go! 3.Radio attendees that heard both and wondered who to believe!
Unfortunately, group 1 can be counted on one hand.
Group 2 includes almost all of our industry’s leaders.
And group 3 includes everyone else.
Note to group 3: Believe group 1.
