It is well known that TV has been eclipsed in recent years by the Internet as the largest advertising medium in Australia. Australians’ attitudes to TV advertising will probably not surprise anyone, with 75% agreeing that "Some TV advertising is devious" and 67.6% agreeing that "Nearly all TV advertising annoys me". However, for one-in-five Australians "TV advertising often gives me something to talk about" and 14.3% agree that "Quite often they find TV advertising more entertaining than the programs". Roy Morgan CEO Michele Levine says that the power of addressable TV to show relevant advertising to consumers will give commercial TV channels the chance to level the playing field that has thus far been tilted in favour of purely online competitors and the opportunity to "flip" the perceptions of advertising many Australians currently hold.
