The document discusses the future of television as new technologies disrupt the traditional TV industry. It notes that media giants, tech companies, and internet innovators are revolutionizing TV. Experts predict more change in the next 5-10 years than the last 25 combined. Social media, user-generated content, and second screen engagement are shifting power away from traditional media elites. Television will become more social, participatory, and focused on live/event revenue as linear TV integrates with the internet and second screens. Viewership data and social TV engagement will be highly valuable for advertisers and drive new monetization models in an increasingly interactive digital television landscape.
