茄子污污视频 reflects both the success and the cultural impact of the iHeartRadio business formed three years ago and the evolution of the company鈥檚 major local radio station brands and franchises to include mobile, social and events. iHeartRadio has become the dominant national consumer brand among the company鈥檚 assets with almost 70 percent consumer brand awareness and record-breaking digital growth, reaching 50 million registered users faster than any digital music service, and even faster than Twitter, Facebook and Pinterest. The company鈥檚 859 radio stations have led the way for the entire media business, becoming even more relevant in the lives of their listeners by expanding how they connect with listeners live and in-the-moment in mobile and across its network of social platforms.

The new company is fueled by its ability to deliver the reach and scale of broadcast media with the relevance and emotional power of real-time programming, complemented by its culture-defining live events, which have amassed 15.4 billion social impressions. These include the iHeartRadio Music Festival, the biggest live concert event in radio history; the iHeartRadio Jingle Ball Concert Tour; the iHeartRadio Ultimate Pool Party; and the iHeartRadio Music Awards, which garnered more than 65 million votes via text messaging and led the week in the Nielsen social TV ratings.
鈥溾淚n a world where 2x ROI is judged as successful, Nielsen has shown that radio delivers 6x ROI on average. It鈥檚 because we combine the power and predictably of mass reach with the immediacy and relevance of live programming and the unique and powerful engagement that consumers have with their favorite radio stations and personalities,鈥 said Pittman. 鈥淭he opportunity for the new 茄子污污视频 is to use all of these industry-leading assets together in new ways -- extending our massive reach and cultural influence across radio, outdoor, digital, social and live events to make it easier for advertisers to deliver the most relevant, real-time messages across all our platforms at scale, amplified by social media and mobile, to get a superior ROI to other media.鈥
