Earnings Calls
On the heels of discontinuing its AnyPlay service and announcing plans to build an "iconic skyscraper" in Philly, Comcast will release the company's Q4 financial results, and Viacom, which recently launched integrated marketing unit Velocity, will also announce its earnings for the quarter ending Dec. 31, 2013.
Comcast, Tuesday at 8:30 a.m.
Viacom, Thursday at 8:30 a.m.
Football Fever
Advertisers’ favorite TV event of the year is almost here: Super Bowl XLVIII. Fox gets the honors for this year’s Bowl -- the first to be held in cold weather -- which pits the Seattle Seahawks against the Denver Broncos from possibly snowy New Jersey (but hey, at least no blackouts right?). Comedies Brooklyn Nine-Nine and New Girl get the plum post-Super Bowl slot.
When: Sunday, 6:30 p.m.
Where: New York City
