The Advantages of TV over Radio

• Most people have the radio on “for noise”. They are usually otherwise engaged with something else while listening, and often are only half listening.

• Radio makes it difficult for the listener to take physical action as a result of the advertising message (ex. Needing to find a pen in response to hearing a phone number or store location)

• Radio is not visual, most people retain information much better when they see it as opposed to just hearing it.
