On a morning panel at the Outfront conference, multiple executives said TV ad spending is benefiting from advertisers' desire to run campaigns that try to send people from TV to the Web. A certain

Along with the economic recovery, Initiative's Kris Magel said the use of TV as a digital driver is prompting
clients to up TV spending.
"You've got this giant megaphone that is television that drives all this awareness, all this curiosity," he said. "And you've got digital that's now really developed
into something amazing, sitting there like a giant catcher's mitt pulling people in."
