Newspapers<br />
Still Attractive<br />
To Some<br />
Investors<br />
A Philadelphia-based company<br />
has invested in a <strong>regional</strong><br />
newspaper — and it’s not The<br />
Inquirer.<br />
The Wilkes-Barre daily<br />
newspaper, “The Times Leader”<br />
has been acquired by Versa Capital<br />
Management L.L.C., 2929 Arch St.;<br />
215-609-3400.<br />
In addition to <strong>the</strong> daily<br />
newspaper, Versa also ob-tained<br />
several community pub-lications in<br />
<strong>the</strong> Wilkes-Barre area, along with<br />
websites and digital media firms.<br />
Versa Capital Manage-ment<br />
has a history of investing in media,<br />
food service and manufacturing.<br />
O<strong>the</strong>r specific investments<br />
include Simplexity, wireless<br />
and home services online; bell<br />
and Howell, high-volume mail<br />
equipment, and Black Angus<br />
steakhouses.<br />
The total price paid was not<br />
disclosed.<br />

Phila. Model<br />
Murder Victim<br />
Vanessa Watson, a local<br />
professional model aka Vanessa<br />
Banks, died recently. She was 26.<br />
Ms. Watson was <strong>the</strong> victim<br />
of a murder-suicide.<br />
She was shot and killed<br />
by a possessive boyfriend,<br />
Luis McCrea, 31, in <strong>the</strong> Wayne<br />
Junction station. He immediately<br />
committed suicide at <strong>the</strong> scene.<br />
Watson had appeared in<br />
Black Entertainment Television’s<br />
“Rip <strong>the</strong> Runway,” and had been<br />
a runway model during New<br />
York’s Fall Fashion Week.<br />
She also had appeared in<br />
a variety of music videos, and<br />
photo shoots.<br />
She is survived by three<br />
children.<br />

She Reports The News,<br />
And Now, Makes The News<br />
A former Philadelphia Daily<br />
News reporter was a news-maker,<br />
(well, gossip column subject)<br />
recently when she crashed a yoga<br />
class to get a story and photo.<br />
Simone Weichselbaum, currently<br />
a New York Daily News reporter,<br />
was after material pertaining to movie/<br />
TV star Alec Baldwin.<br />
She learned Baldwin’s new<br />
fiancé, Hilaria Thomas, was enrolled<br />
in a Manhattan yoga group. A good<br />
opportunity for a picture.<br />
So…being an enterprising<br />
reporter, she took co-worker photographer<br />
Enid Alvarez with her.<br />
When Baldwin, 54, heard of<br />
<strong>the</strong> incident he took exception.<br />
Well, that’s being modest.<br />
Actually, he raged, and<br />
posted Weichselbaum’s photo<br />
on <strong>the</strong> internet, with a message<br />
saying: “Here’s <strong>the</strong> nutty bitch who<br />
crashed <strong>the</strong> yoga class…”<br />
“Shame on <strong>the</strong> no-talent<br />
trash from <strong>the</strong> (N.Y.) Daily News<br />
for invading <strong>the</strong> privacy of 75<br />
people in a yoga class to take a<br />
picture of someone,” he added.<br />
Baldwin’s fiancé is 28, young<br />
enough to be his daughter.<br />
In commenting on <strong>the</strong> age<br />
difference, Philadelphia Daily<br />
News columnist Dan Gross wrote:<br />
…“Perhaps <strong>the</strong> media snark<br />
about <strong>the</strong>ir ages may have, in<br />
part, inspired his outbreak.”<br />
Gross ended his report by<br />
adding: “The usually mouthy<br />
Weichselbaum surprisingly declined<br />
to comment unless and until she<br />
gets permission from her editors.”<br />
Nat’l 20/20 TV Interview<br />
May Clear The Air On<br />
Bolaris’ Miami Drugging<br />
John Bolaris, former longtime<br />
Fox 29 on-air wea<strong>the</strong>r<br />
reporter, will be back on<br />
television — but not at TV-29.<br />
He left <strong>the</strong>re earlier this<br />
year under cloudy conditions.<br />
However, <strong>the</strong> nationallybroadcast<br />
show “20/20” has<br />
taped Bolaris’ account of his<br />
stormy run-in with two women<br />
in Miami that left him cold.<br />
Allegedly, <strong>the</strong> women met<br />
Bolaris at a bar, drugged him,<br />
stole his credit card, and used<br />
it to buy thousands of dollars of<br />
merchandise.<br />
He told of <strong>the</strong> incident in<br />
a featured Playboy Magazine<br />
article.<br />
His account in <strong>the</strong> magazine<br />
did not endear him to Philadelphia’s<br />
TV-29 management.<br />
“They parted ways,” is how<br />
<strong>the</strong> station reported his leaving.<br />
The Miami girls were reported<br />
as being connected to an<br />
Eastern European <strong>the</strong>ft ring.<br />
Bolaris’ telling of <strong>the</strong><br />
incident has already been<br />
taped by <strong>the</strong> 20/20 show.<br />
At ACT’s press time, <strong>the</strong><br />
broadcast date had yet to be<br />
announced.<br />
Money…Marketing…Music Combine<br />
As Format For New Radio Show<br />
The first series of radio interviews<br />
on <strong>the</strong> new, <strong>regional</strong><br />
“Music Talk” 30-minute program<br />
have featured a variety of area<br />
music-related executives.<br />
They discussed <strong>the</strong> nature<br />
of <strong>the</strong> <strong>business</strong>es <strong>the</strong>y repre-<br />

Readers’ Choices In<br />
Special Adv. Sections<br />
Are Questioned<br />
Are <strong>the</strong> “Readers’ Choice”<br />
Awards published by many area<br />
newspapers and magazines fixed?<br />
Do <strong>the</strong> publications use<br />
<strong>the</strong> awards to gain or to please<br />
advertisers?<br />
Cynics think so.<br />
Now comes an apology from<br />
three <strong>regional</strong> daily newspapers<br />
that suggest all is not kosher in<br />
<strong>the</strong> voting by readers, and voting<br />
results as published.<br />
The three dailies are <strong>the</strong><br />
Bucks County Courier Times,<br />
Doylestown Intelligencer and <strong>the</strong><br />
Burlington, N.J. County Times.<br />
The dailies are owned by<br />
Calkins Media.<br />
The “fess up” was made in a<br />
page one apology.<br />
“I regret to inform you that<br />
<strong>the</strong> voting results for several of<br />
<strong>the</strong> categories were not accurately<br />
reflected in <strong>the</strong> special advertising<br />
section in which <strong>the</strong> results were<br />
announced,” Calkins Media vice<br />
president Thomas J. Spurgeon<br />
wrote in a recent page one letter.<br />
The letter also said: “…an<br />
accurate representation of <strong>the</strong> vote<br />
totals…was not influenced by our<br />
advertisers or <strong>the</strong> newsroom.”<br />
More than 200 categories of<br />
local <strong>business</strong>es were included<br />
in <strong>the</strong> special advertising/award<br />
section.<br />
Spurgeon added in <strong>the</strong> page<br />
one letter, that an award program<br />
will be continued for this year, but<br />
will be “revamped”.<br />
Votes will be tabulated by a<br />
“third-party accounting firm”.<br />

By Mike Mallowe<br />
My son just told me that he<br />
decided to get rid of his cable<br />
television. He isn’t switching to<br />
satellite.<br />
“How’s that working out?” I<br />
asked him.<br />
“Oh, fine,” he said. “The only<br />
thing is that now I’m watching<br />
more TV than ever. Did you see<br />
Fringe this week?”<br />
Both of us are big Fringe<br />
fans. I bet that most of you don’t<br />
even know what that show is. It<br />
happens to be a hybrid sci-fi/time<br />
travel/and fa<strong>the</strong>r-son relationship<br />
show. One-of-a-kind, to be sure.<br />
Its fans are relatively few and<br />
ferociously loyal. Sheer devotion<br />
has kept it going for what will be<br />
its fifth season next year. In TV<br />
<strong>the</strong>y sometimes call this a “cult<br />
following”.<br />
A couple years ago <strong>the</strong> Fox<br />
network moved Fringe to Friday<br />
nights. That is as close to a<br />
death sentence as a TV show<br />
can be given. People do o<strong>the</strong>r<br />
things on Friday nights; if you<br />
are watching TV <strong>the</strong>n, you can<br />
take a seat next to me.<br />
But, guess what, Fox just<br />
renewed Fringe for ano<strong>the</strong>r<br />
season – its last.<br />
I can’t wait to see what<br />
Walter does next. Walter, a mad<br />
scientist, is <strong>the</strong> fa<strong>the</strong>r figure in<br />
<strong>the</strong> show; he is about as far<br />
from normal as you can get on<br />
this planet. I really identify with<br />
Walter.<br />
How can this be? How does<br />
Fringe survive?<br />
My son is a smart young<br />
Trending Now -- Television; No More Cable Bills<br />
guy with exquisite taste.<br />
As a TV columnist from<br />
Los Angeles recently pointed<br />
out, my son watches shows, not<br />
networks.<br />
He watches his favorite<br />
shows on his lap-top, or on a cell<br />
phone, or on a tablet, or on some<br />
o<strong>the</strong>r kind of mobile device that I<br />
can’t even name.<br />
This is a form of “second<br />
screening”. Second screening<br />
means that you have ano<strong>the</strong>r<br />
screen in front of you – tablet,<br />
lap-top, game, and so forth –<br />
while you watch TV. In my son’s<br />
case <strong>the</strong> second screen is all <strong>the</strong><br />
TV that he watches.<br />
The New<br />
TV Consumers<br />
Television is all about<br />
loyalty now, and personal choice<br />
and my son and I discussing<br />
<strong>the</strong> latest episode of Fringe; or<br />
his wife, Rie, and him enjoying<br />
Japanese cartoons on <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
computer – she’s from a city just<br />
north of Tokyo.<br />
When <strong>the</strong>y get really bored<br />
during one of San Diego’s<br />
frequent rainy seasons, <strong>the</strong>y<br />
make little YouTube broadcasts<br />
(<strong>the</strong>ir cat, Dink, is a favorite<br />
subject) and post <strong>the</strong>m on <strong>the</strong><br />
Internet. At work, he often makes<br />
streaming videos, too.<br />
TV is running as fast as<br />
it can to try and keep up with<br />
him and all <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r second<br />
screeners out <strong>the</strong>re.<br />
My son and his wife are<br />
<strong>the</strong> new crowned heads of TV<br />
consumers.<br />
Mike Mallowe<br />
The networks would<br />
practically kill for <strong>the</strong>ir loyalty:<br />
<strong>the</strong>y are highly educated,<br />
bountifully employed, willing<br />
to spend money on important<br />
purchases, and between <strong>the</strong><br />
ages of 18 and 49 – <strong>the</strong> magic<br />
demographic.<br />
Much of TV programming and<br />
nearly all of <strong>the</strong> advertising that<br />
appears on television is directed<br />
at <strong>the</strong>m and at nobody else. Yet,<br />
technically speaking, my son and<br />
his wife don’t even have a television<br />
anymore. But <strong>the</strong> networks still<br />
have to cater to <strong>the</strong>m.<br />
According to an authoritative<br />
story that just ran in <strong>the</strong> LA<br />
Times, by Meg James:<br />
“When viewers watch a TV<br />
program with a tablet device,<br />
<strong>the</strong>y tend to check <strong>the</strong>ir email,<br />
hunt for sports scores or seek<br />
additional information about <strong>the</strong><br />
show or a commercial <strong>the</strong>y were<br />
watching on <strong>the</strong> big screen.<br />

a year: that “second screen<br />
viewing” appears to augment <strong>the</strong><br />
TV viewing experience ra<strong>the</strong>r<br />
than steal away viewers.<br />
“Nielsen’s State of <strong>the</strong><br />
Media: <strong>Advertising</strong> & Audiences<br />
report found that men, when<br />
watching TV and using a tablet<br />
simultaneously, were more<br />
likely than women to look for<br />
information related to a TV<br />
program <strong>the</strong>y were watching<br />
(39% versus 34%). Women<br />
were more inclined to seek<br />
information related to a television<br />
commercial (24% versus 21%).<br />
“Not surprisingly, teenagers<br />
with tablets were far more apt<br />
to visit a social media site while<br />
watching TV than were older<br />
baby boomers and seniors (62%<br />
versus 33%).”<br />
Know Where to Advertise<br />
Let me tell you about ano<strong>the</strong>r<br />
show; it’s called 16& Pregnant. I’ve<br />
never seen it; I don’t plan to unless<br />
someone wants me to write a<br />
column about it. Like this one.<br />
It’s a fairly long-running<br />
reality show about exactly what<br />
<strong>the</strong> title says: being 16 and<br />
pregnant. Heavy stuff for <strong>the</strong><br />
kind of viewers who know <strong>the</strong><br />
names of all <strong>the</strong> stars on Jersey<br />
Shore – in o<strong>the</strong>r words, young,<br />
technically-savvy viewers.<br />
Why is it important?<br />
Because in <strong>the</strong> world<br />
of tweets and social media,<br />
16&Pregnant is an unstoppable<br />
powerhouse.<br />
If you want to reach <strong>the</strong><br />
people who watch it with your<br />
advertising message, you better<br />
know where and how to find <strong>the</strong>m.<br />
Wasting your money on cheap,<br />
local buys on major network TV is<br />
not a very good place to find <strong>the</strong>m.<br />
The week of April 22nd 16&Pregnant was among <strong>the</strong><br />
top five subjects – in <strong>the</strong> whole<br />
world -- on <strong>the</strong> list of <strong>the</strong> hottest<br />
trending topics on <strong>the</strong> Internet.<br />
Think about that. Not<br />
politics, not <strong>the</strong> economy, not <strong>the</strong><br />
price of gasoline, but <strong>the</strong> overemoting<br />
kids on 16&Pregnant.<br />
People couldn’t stop texting<br />
about it.<br />
And, yes, it is a seedylooking<br />
reality TV show, replete<br />
with weeping teens and <strong>the</strong> boys<br />
who got <strong>the</strong>m pregnant, and <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
families.<br />

A TV Show Can Win<br />
Without Millions of Viewers<br />
How about if I throw out<br />
ano<strong>the</strong>r program – Mad Men.<br />
The critics love it; it wins all<br />
<strong>the</strong> awards. It premiered recently<br />
on AMC, a cable network that<br />
cable systems pick up as basic<br />
programming for <strong>the</strong>ir viewers.<br />
It isn’t what we used to call<br />
pay-TV, like HBO or Showtime.<br />
AMC is closer to <strong>the</strong> Walmart of<br />
basic cable. Mad Men premiered<br />
this season to an audience of<br />
3.5 million people; about half of<br />
<strong>the</strong>m were aged 18 to 49. A good<br />
week for The Walking Dead, a<br />
show about zombies, also on<br />
AMC, draws roughly three times<br />
as many viewers.<br />
But, Mad Men is a genuine<br />
cultural icon; it has made stars<br />
out of obscure actors and has<br />
single-handedly brought back<br />
all those ugly skinny-tie male<br />
fashions of <strong>the</strong> 1960s.<br />
But, guess what, 16&Pregnant<br />
kills Mad Men every week, even<br />
when <strong>the</strong>y broadcast re-runs.<br />
The buzz about Mad Men<br />
is beyond massive. However, by<br />
no stretch of <strong>the</strong> imagination is it<br />
even a border-line TV hit.<br />
It also doesn’t sell very<br />
much advertising.<br />
This is ano<strong>the</strong>r anomaly of<br />
TV today.<br />
A TV program makes it<br />
or fails today based on much<br />
more than raw numbers. The<br />
social media interaction that is<br />
displayed by those 18 to 49 yearold<br />
viewers/followers/consumers<br />
is at least as important as<br />
conventional ratings.<br />
By <strong>the</strong> way, what are <strong>the</strong> most<br />
popular programs on television so<br />
far this year, as of May 1?<br />
--Sunday Night Football<br />
--American Idol<br />
--NCIS<br />
--Dancing With <strong>the</strong> Stars<br />
Each one pulls in about 18<br />
to 20 million viewers per week.<br />
In re-runs, NCIS can approach<br />
10 million; it’s easily <strong>the</strong> most<br />
popular show on television.<br />
So, what really makes <strong>the</strong><br />
big networks rich? NFL football,<br />
two amateur-hour game shows,<br />
and <strong>the</strong> U.S. Marines.<br />
That’s TV.<br />
pages per edition, and is larger than 95 percent all<br />
medical journals and physician magazines published<br />
in <strong>the</strong> world.<br />
Additionally, Tourist Attractions & Parks is larger<br />
on a per-page basis than any leisure entertainment<br />
industry trade publication.<br />

Annoying Lost Time From Preventative Healthcare<br />
I’m not into giving time to<br />
medically-related practitioners<br />
— when I’m only a potential patient.<br />
Yes, I’m into giving time to<br />
medically-related practitioners<br />
— when it benefits <strong>the</strong>m — as I<br />
have done for over 50 years by<br />
providing to <strong>the</strong>m ways to gain<br />
new patients via <strong>the</strong> professional<br />
advertising and communications<br />
channels of my firm, American<br />
<strong>Advertising</strong> Services. (If interested,<br />
484-562-0060).<br />
But back to <strong>the</strong> topic of <strong>the</strong>re<br />
personal thoughts:<br />
Lately, with my wife, Sandy’s<br />
constant pushing, reminding,<br />
pushing, encouraging —<br />
and pushing, I’ve been seeing<br />
a growing number of health professionals.<br />
Here <strong>the</strong>y are from <strong>the</strong> head<br />
down to my feet.<br />
…Optometrist<br />
…Audiologist<br />
…Dentist<br />
…Dermatologist<br />
…General Practitioner<br />
…Cardiologist<br />
…Physical Therapist<br />
…Podiatrist<br />
…Also <strong>the</strong> druggist, and<br />
labs for tests<br />
Note: No mention here of<br />
Funeral Directors, as “Death is<br />
bad for your health”.<br />
Moving Forward. Constantly<br />
I continue to develop, and<br />
run our <strong>business</strong> divisions.<br />
I continue to be first one in<br />
to <strong>the</strong> office, last one out.<br />
I continue to recycle <strong>the</strong><br />
manila folders, save paper clips,<br />

use <strong>the</strong> rubber bands that come<br />
with <strong>the</strong> U.S. Mail<br />
(Wow! Has that diminished!)<br />
And…make <strong>the</strong> sales<br />
calls…consult with clients…interview<br />
applicants…give ideas…<br />
teach (“Do It Now”)…follow-up.<br />
So where do I find time for all<br />
<strong>the</strong> medical “preventive” visits?<br />
I try for early AM pre-work,<br />
lunch time appointments and<br />
post-work hours- -and am pretty<br />
good at being <strong>the</strong> practitioners<br />
last appointment of <strong>the</strong> day.<br />
Frankly, I think my 8AM-<br />
4:30PM, Monday to Friday, <strong>business</strong><br />
routine is instrumental in<br />
my medical checkups being only<br />
checkups.<br />
There is an upside to medical<br />
appointments.<br />
I really enjoy reading magazines.<br />
Thanks to waiting rooms,<br />
I read “Time”, “People”, and<br />
specialty magazines — where I<br />
have no interest. Most of <strong>the</strong>m<br />
are out-of-date.<br />
Fortunately, I’m not out-ofdate...<br />
As I keep telling myself.<br />
The PhiladelPhia Regional Business/MaRkeTing MonThly<br />
~ ~ ~<br />
On Ano<strong>the</strong>r Subject:<br />
I had my first experience recently<br />
with The Inquirer under its<br />
new, and current owners.<br />
For 40 years I’ve had seven-day<br />
home delivery.<br />
The same family, to best<br />
of my knowledge, provided <strong>the</strong><br />
service. It was on my driveway<br />
about 7AM, thus I enjoyed The<br />
Inquirer with breakfast before<br />
leaving for office.<br />
But on a recent Friday, no<br />
Inquirer.<br />
The next day, Saturday, no<br />
Inquirer.<br />
I called <strong>the</strong> delivery family.<br />
They said, “After 50 years,<br />
we were fired”.<br />
They were gracious in giving<br />
me a telephone number to<br />
call — which I did.<br />
First came automated questions.<br />
Being a bit (more than a<br />
“bit” my wife would say) hard of<br />
hearing, it wasn’t easy to decipher<br />
<strong>the</strong> taped questions.<br />
But I concentrated and did,<br />
and — got a live person.<br />
Joe Ball<br />
Her name: Bernice.<br />
Since few people <strong>the</strong>se<br />
days are named Bernice, I figured<br />
she was long-term at The<br />
Inquirer.<br />
She was.<br />
I explained <strong>the</strong> no-delivery<br />
situation. She asked my home<br />
telephone number. Then asked<br />
that I wait. I did.<br />
And she was back, surprisingly,<br />
quickly.<br />
“Your paper will be delivered<br />
within <strong>the</strong> hour,” she said.<br />
“Can I get Fridays also?” I<br />
asked.<br />
“I’ll see,” she offered.<br />
Well, <strong>the</strong> paper wasn’t delivered<br />
in a hour.<br />
But it did come in about two<br />
hours.<br />
No Friday, however.<br />
But, I’m not one to quibble.<br />
I tip my hat to Bernice.<br />
Hey <strong>the</strong>re Bernice… use<br />
this to ask for a raise — and job<br />
security.

Political Ad Costs<br />
Soaring for Internet<br />
With major elections coming up, Internet news web sites will be<br />
inundated with “pre-roll” political advertising.<br />
And <strong>the</strong> advertisers will be paying <strong>the</strong> highest dollars ever.<br />
A Fort Washington, Pa. Republican-oriented online advertising<br />
consultant, Rick Masterson recently informed Joseph N. DiStefano,<br />
a Phila. Inquirer writer, that <strong>the</strong> cost for those commercials, are up<br />
5x what was paid in 2010.<br />
This year’s charge will be about $45-$50 per 1,000 online views.<br />
The audience has boomed due to <strong>the</strong> explosion in number of<br />
social media and smart phone devotees.<br />
And also, because <strong>the</strong> money is <strong>the</strong>re, from <strong>the</strong> Super PAC’s<br />
and billionaire-funded groups.<br />
Schedules are being purchased now, for October and November,<br />
Masterson said.<br />
