When discussing the opportunities at Fox Interactive Media, Rebekah explains “As the global leader in advertiser integration, one challenge and opportunity I see is to grow the overall share of online advertising budgets compared to traditional media. It still amazes me that whilst overall online budgets grow year on year, traditional media with fragmented audiences that offer flat non-integrated solutions and push messages at consumers with little to no way of measuring any user interaction, still receive the majority of global advertising budgets. I look forward to the broader industry having the “ah ha†moment that some advertisers have had. In the meantime, MySpace will continue to evolve its advertising and consumer proposition and deliver relevant products for users and clientsâ€.
