"The accelerating digitalisation of the media landscape has released enormous forces of change in the Nordic advertising markets. The overall impression from the results of this study is that the sweeping changes digitalisation is bringing about are not just undermining the business model on which t
...
he majority of commercially financed media companies in the Nordic countries have based their journalistic operations, they are also making it more difficult for the same companies to find a sustainable business model in a digital environment. The battle for advertising revenue is now an unfair fight. Media companies at the national and local level are finding it increasingly difficult to compete with the advertising solutions that global digital actors such as Google and Facebook are bringing to the market. The latter are not just more sophisticated than the domestic alternatives, they are also significantly cheaper. The results of this study indicate unequivocally that the differences in competitiveness between Nordic and non-Nordic advertising platforms will be exacerbated as digital advertising investments grow."

"This report looks at ten factors that have altered the media marketplace and that pose challenges to national and local news producers and their sources of revenue. They include ways in which governments interfere in media markets; changes in the structure of news distribution and audience behavior

; and the way these changes have transformed how advertising media is bought, sold, and distributed. It then examines the key engagement metrics taken from a sampling of media development partner organizations to offer thoughts on how well these news producers are prepared to compete for audiences and revenue. Finally, it offers thoughts about the implications of these issues for media development organizations." (Introduction, page 2)

"Im Kontext digitaler Medienumgebungen vermischen sich bestehende werbebezogene normative Standards mit neuen, ehemals branchenfremden Standards. Dies macht auf der Ebene werblicher Medienangebote die Neudefinition ethischer Grenzlinien wahrscheinlich. Dies macht aber auch auf der Ebene der Akteure

im Feld der Planung, Produktion und Distribution von Werbung ethische Intra und Inter-Rollenkonflikte wahrscheinlich. Darüber hinaus werfen neue Werbeformen wie personalisierte Werbung in digitalen Medienumgebungen neue ethische Probleme auf, Stichwort: Schutz sensibler Zielgruppen. Um das ethische Problempotenzial dieser Entwicklungen auszuloten, ist es erforderlich, dass die ethische Urteilsbildung sich nicht ausschließlich auf werbliche Medienangebote konzentriert, sondern auch die Werte- und Normenbezüge von Praktikern im Feld der Werbung fokussiert."

The fact that there is no central body to oversee and monitor the distribution of state advertising does not help. Furthermore, the absence of data from public companies that are not part of the state authorities makes it difficult to have a complete picture of the true extent of public funds allocated to the media."

"Spending on media continues to shift from traditional to digital products and services at a rapid pace.

Digital, consisting of Internet and mobile advertising, will become the largest advertising category by 2017, surpassing TV one year earlier than forecast, and mobile will more than double its share of the digital ad market. This rapid digital shift is being driven in part by the growing number of connected consumers, the expansion of mobile telephony, and elevated mobile broadband adoption." (Page 5)
