East and West Coast Studies Show Changes in Spanish, Negro Audiences
Studies oJ two specialized audiences,! the Negro audience in San Francisco and the Spanish audience in New] 'luik, have recently turned up some1' interesting laiis aboul these groups.
A significant fact about Spanishspeaking listeners in New York is that they spend nearl) twice as many hours (8.4) per day listening to radio as other listeners (3.5 hours) . This information was revealed by a stud) conducted foi WWRL New York by Audience Analysts, Bala Cynwyd, Pa.
"The language hairier eliminates man) forms oi entertainment tor the Spanish-speaking person, and radio is hasic in their lives as both a source ol information and entertainment," commented Selvin Donneson, vice president in charge of sales, WWRL.
Spanish-speaking homes have an average of two radio sets per home, and 21 percent have three sets or more, the survey indicates. Ninet) percent of Spanish-speaking homes report one or more persons currently employed, and 12.5 percent have two or more employed. The average family unit consists of 4.8 persons.
"This is significant," Mr. Donneson says, "because it explains how Spanish-speaking families can afford to bu) the best products. Admittedly, individual income is lower, but Eamily income is higher." And, he pointed out, "Advertisers get greater efficiency and deeper penetration from their sales messages, which makes the Spanish market a natural lor radio."
Music, stories and news make up the program preferences of Spanishspeaking listeners. Sports shows rate high, but rock 'n' roll music rates last, the survey revealed.
