TelevisionWeek is a trade magazine delivering news, analysis and data on television and media. Founded in 1982 as Electronic Media, its content appears today in a print weekly and on many electronic platforms, including TelevisionWeek.com, daily e-mail newsletters, blogs, and video. TelevisionWeek provides additional coverage of other entertainment and media technologies as they continue to emerge, including broadband, On Demand, viral video and HDTV. Its content is developed and marketed directly to executives, media buyers, station owners, writers, producers, and the general public of television and media consumers.
The print edition is a glossy newspaper published weekly and delivered nationally and internationally, with broad coverage of television and digital media including industry news, analysis, technology, and ratings from Nielsen Media Research.
TVWeek.com features a number of blogs, some created by the publication's editorial team, others, such as Access Hollywood Confidential, by Access Hollywood producer Rob Silverstein, are created by members of the television community. Among its notable columnists are Inside Edition's Deborah Norville, and Pulitzer Prize-winning television critic Tom Shales.
In 2007, TelelvisonWeek launched WebVideoReport, a Crain Communications publication aimed at web video creators and the practice of generating revenue and marketing goods and services in the emerging market. It combines daily news on the web video industry, case studies on companies that are exploring the medium, and how-to articles from industry leaders that lay out the nuts and bolts of creating, distributing, and monetizing web video.
The editorial component of TelevisionWeek is based in Los Angeles. Its parent company, Detroit-based Crain Communications, is a privately held publishing company with more than 30 magazines, including Advertising Age, Creativity, Crain's New York Business, Crain's Chicago Business, Crain's Detroit Business, Crain's Cleveland Business, and Automotive News. The corporate and circulation component of TelevisionWeek, as with all of the Crain publications, is based at Crain's headquarters in Downtown Detroit
