Most advertisers on "Madison Avenue" still believe the advertising community has not seen bottom yet, but see some relief starting in Early 2010. The forecast for the third quarter of 2009 is for newspaper advertising to be down 25% from 2008, and estimates are for a poor forth quarter, but something better than the 3Q2009 decline.
The Newspaper Association of America recently reported a drop in both print and digital ad revenue of 16.6% for 2008, and 2009 will be worse. Beyond the challenges print media has for advertising dollars, retailer's sluggish sales have also hurt spending budgets. Let's hope for strong Holiday promotions!
