The Measurement Wars: Nielsen vs. Everybody

Episode notes

Can anyone topple Nielsen? We break down TV’s biggest (and nerdiest) turf war. For a while in 2021, the longtime ratings king looked vulnerable—inviting challengers like VideoAmp, iSpot, and Comscore to step up. But now, Nielsen is reasserting its dominance. We explore how the measurement landscape is shifting, who’s gaining ground, and why a multi-currency future might be harder than it sounds.
