    Very interesting Joe.

    How does this article reconcile with today's article by Larissa Faw's "Pandemic-Driven Demand Bolsters Video Entertainment Ad Spend".

    The lede seems to be based on "Video entertainment advertising will shrink by just 0.2% in 2020 across ten key markets this year, outperforming the 8.7% drop for the ad market as a whole, according to new research from Zenith.", also reported in yiur story.

    Both refer to 'video entertainment' forecasty to be down annually by just -0.2% c.f. total ad market down by -9.1%.

    I fail to see how -0.2% is a "Crash".

    @John Grono: For one of the fastest growing ad categories in recent years to be down or flat this by year and next, I'd call a crash. But we clearly have different views on the meaning of that word.

    Even by an anticipated 2022 overall ad recovery, the category will trail general ad growth 3-to-1.
