TV usage and buying have been evolving but the pandemic has accelerated changes. People are dropping paid television plans at a far faster pace then pre-Covid, and it may not slow down when “normal” returns. In turn, this will change how smart buyers look at TV buying.

And many media have seen increased traffic, providing more reason for advertisers to maintain a presence in these unsettled times.
