星期二 [ 2010-1-19 17:45:25 | watches1013 ] MEDIA WATCH IT seems kind of funny in hindsight that SMG was heavily trumpeting a new weekday news magazine programme to mitigate grim financial news the other week when a whopping contract to make 40 lottery shows was just around the corner. If only the PRs had made the timing of the two announcements marry up, they would have had a much better distraction. This won't worry Stephen Jardine, though, who is tipped to present the magazine show. If this is the case, let's hope it lasts longer than other recent Jardine vehicles, such as Drivetime and Sunday Live. With both visibly made for about the cost of a packet of fags, let's hope STV has realised you need to spend a few quid to win a few viewers. SUNDAY Times execs are no doubt feeling queasy following the most recent round of ABC sales figures. They show that for the ninth month out of nine this year, the paper has declined faster than either this paper or its other Scottish rival, Scotland on Sunday. Its active sale was down 7per cent to 70,722 compared with a 1per cent drop to 53,541 for this paper and a 4per cent drop to 65,869 at SoS. The UK Sunday 5050 RGB Controller LD-CON-12-M Times is performing no better, with a further September twist to boot: while the paper could justifiably put previous figures down to year-on-year comparisons with the months before its cover price went up 20p to GBP1.90 in Scotland and GBP2.00 elsewhere last September 17, this is no longer the case. The paper may still be easily the best-selling Sunday in the country, but we can expect to see execs getting edgy if their figures don't fall back into line with the market soon. WE note that former Sun editor Kelvin MacKenzie attracted 200 complaints to the BBC after having a go at the Scots on Question Time on Thursday. "The reality is that the Scots enjoy spending it, they don't enjoy creating it, which is the opposite of down in the south, " he snarled.

PR firm McGarvie Morrison Media has been hired to run mobile phone company Orange's UK community relations programme for the next year, in a six-figure deal that is MMM's largest to date. We are told this will focus on things like mobile phone masts and not on improving the company's disastrous customer service ratings, but let's hope the agency does some good in that department along the way! FOLLOWING media correspondent Fergus Sheppard's move from The Scotsman to a London PR job, we note the disappearance of his Thursday media pages last week. If this means we've seen the last of them, making the Sunday Herald the only newspaper with a regular slot for media coverage, let us hope they rest in peace.
