What do \'>ii mean li\ the magazine concept? i). I mean buying of participations rather than a complete show. A. I don"t like that word participation particularly, but if you mean, by the magazine concept, an advertiser spreading liis investment among main programs, and the networks, on the other hand, spreading the sponsorship of a program among many advertisers — yes. Because there is a strengthening trend in that direction, whereby an advertiser with his television budget will spread his investment among a variety of programs just as the network will spread its revenue for a particular program among a variety of advertisers. The radio concept of exclusive ownership of a program is less important in television. Television is so strong that an advertiser can enjo) high identification when he has far less than complete ownership or dominance of a given program. As a matter of fact, even within programs owned completely by one advertiser, such as the Kraft Theatre, you have in effect, from the standpoint of the advertiser, the magazine concept because to use your own word, participation, various products of that company participate in the program.
