At the end of 2021, Rossiya 1, the flagship channel of VGTRK, for the first time in terms of average daily audience share among all residents of large cities over four years of age overtook, albeit by a minimal margin, its main competitor and long-term leader, Channel One. Then it was 12.9 and 12.7%, respectively. In the next three years, Russia 1 was again in first place, and the gap widened. In 2019, the average daily audience share of “Russia 1” was 11.8%, “First” - 10.4%.

“Russia 1” became the most popular broadcaster for the fourth time in a row Technology and media

Across the country, taking into account small towns and villages, at the end of January-November 2021, the flagship VGTRK channel “Russia 1” had an average daily share of the audience among all viewers over four years old, according to Mediascope measurements, 11.7%, for “First” - 10 .1%, NTV - 9.7%.

But in general, with the increase in the geography of measurements, “Russia 1” and “Channel One” have fewer viewers than in individual large cities. In megacities only, the average daily shares of these broadcasters in January-November for the same period were 12.5 and 10.6%, respectively. But NTV benefited from the new measurement system: in large cities its average daily audience share reached only 9.5%.

The VGTRK press service did not respond to RBC's request. The NTV representative drew attention to the fact that, according to Mediascope, the average daily share of the channel’s audience among residents of large cities was 9.4% in January-November; the interlocutor did not specify the figures for the entire country.

What Konstantin Ernst says about Mediascope results

RBC cites the full opinion of the General Director of Channel One, Konstantin Ernst, about the results of Mediascope: “In 2021, with all its streams, platforms and Internet broadcasting, with all the diversity of media consumption, the very existence of measurements carried out using iron boxes is strange. In a wide circle, few people know, and in a narrow circle, few people think that the owner of the box, the so-called panelist, must register on a special remote control every time the TV is turned on, press the button when going out to smoke, press it again when returning back. Must register all family members coming and going from the TV, and so on every day, for years and for a purpose that is absolutely unclear to ourselves (we, of course, understand where exactly the owners of the boxes saw all these requirements). And certainly few people realize that the shares and ratings of large channels, for example in Moscow (a city with a population of 13 million), are often distributed based on data from about 30 such boxes, so that the victory of a particular channel is clearly determined by the grandmother in whose then the benefit of falling asleep at the TV. Unfortunately, these data force most television content producers to focus on elderly, homebound women, driving all other age and social groups away from classic television. Analyzing an audience based on this data is as dangerous as a pilot piloting a plane using broken instruments. In 2021, when television consumption is largely not through television, a discussion of the average daily share of iron boxes can only captivate those who are more interested in their annual bonus than in the viewers.”

Leaders in their target audiences

The given data for all viewers over four years of age reflect only the general balance of power and has no commercial value - each broadcaster works in its own target audience, which also sells advertising, the main source of income for television broadcasters. “Russia 1” and NTV target all viewers over 18 years old, “Channel One” has a narrower target audience - viewers 14–59 years old.

Both “Russia 1” and “First” remain, as before, leaders in their target audience. Among all viewers over 18 years of age, the average daily share of the flagship channel VGTRK in January-November throughout the country was 12.5%, First - 10.7%, NTV - 10.3%. As in the general audience, the first two broadcasters lost due to geographic expansion; NTV, on the contrary, gained. If we consider, as before, only large cities, the figures will be 13.2, 11 and 10%, respectively.

Mediascope for the first time disclosed data on TV viewing throughout Russia Technologies and media

In the target audience of Channel One - viewers aged 14-59 - across the country, Rossiya 1 ranks only third, behind NTV. The average daily share of "First" is 8.7%, NTV - 7.9%, "Russia 1" - only 7.7%. This means that outside of large cities, the programs of the flagship channel VGTRK are less successful among young audiences.

How advertising is sold on TV

The popularity of a TV channel directly affects its income. Advertising on TV is sold according to so-called rating points, which reflect the number of viewers who saw a standard commercial (previously, a 30-second commercial was taken as a basis, since 2020 - already a 20-second one). Therefore, the more viewers watch the channel and, accordingly, advertising blocks, the more sales in physical terms.

So far, data on the implementation of advertising rating points is available only for ten months of the year.

According to calculations by the Russian office of Publicis Media based on Mediascope measurements, in January-October 2021, Channel One offered advertisers 135.3 thousand rating points in its target audience, which is 1% less than a year earlier (while now on sale advertisements are taken into account by viewers throughout the country, whereas previously only in large cities). For TNT, this drop is 4%, to 139.9 thousand rating points.

For Russia 1, over ten months, the inventory offered to advertisers increased by 2%, to 215.2 thousand rating points in the broadcaster’s target audience. For NTV - by 15%, to 245.7 thousand rating points, for STS - by 11%, to 167.8 thousand rating points.

The cost of a rating point is different for each channel. Moreover, different groups of advertisers buy these rating points under different conditions.

Most popular entertainment channel

Entertainment channels are primarily targeting young audiences, and among them the most popular in 2021 will be STS, as follows from measurement data for January-November. Moreover, STS will be a leader both in its target audience - viewers 10-45 years old - and in the one in which its main competitor TNT operates (viewers 14-44 years old).

In its target audience, the average daily share of STS throughout the country for eleven months reached 10.4%, TNT - only 8.1%. Approximately the same gap is observed if we compare the indicators for the target audience of TNT: 10.3 versus 8.5%.

TNT lost the title of the most popular channel among young viewers at the end of 2021, although before that it had been the leader since 2011, Vedomosti noted a year ago. But then this was data based on the television preferences of residents of large cities only.

“Friday” and STS received new subsidies from the budget for the transition to digital Technologies and media

In 2021, STS, like NTV, benefited from the new geography of measurements. Across the country, it has a higher average daily share than in major cities alone. TNT, on the contrary, has lost out from the changed measurement system: in small towns and villages, the programs of this broadcaster are less in demand.

The general director of STS Media, Vyacheslav Murugov, confirmed through the press service that STS in 2021 “strengthened its leadership in the entertainment TV segment” in all key audiences. A TNT representative drew attention to the fact that the channel, “unlike its competitors,” continues to produce and show “its own unique formats, which enjoy constant success with the audience.” Therefore, according to a TNT representative, the broadcaster remains the leader in its target audience in weekday prime time.
