Internet makes biggest gains in ad report
TORONTO—Released late last month, the Canadian Media Directors' Council released its 2009/2010 edition of Media Digest, produced by Marketing Magazine. In the report, a chart measuring net advertising volume by medium showed big gains in internet advertising in 2008 over 2007. Smaller gains were posted in out-of-home, catalogue/direct mail, yellow pages and miscellaneous. Losses, though not large, were in the newspaper and general magazine categories.
