...publicity is having on Kelly's career. There's no disputing his talent, and that he remains a highly sought-after producer by many artists. His Trapped in the Closet hip-hopera was cheered by critics and fans alike. Double Up sold just 936,000 copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan. That's a respectable figure, but far below the 3.9 million albums 12 Play, his best-selling album and solo debut, sold. (It's worth noting that consumers' music-buying habits have changed dramatically since 1993's 12 Play came out.) Just last week, Kelly released his latest single, "Hair...

According to Nielsen ratings, 88 percent of those watching the tournament were 21 or older, and the median age of viewers was 47. Furthermore, studies have shown little correlation between beer advertising and overall alcohol consumption—instead, such advertising typically changes the brand or type of alcohol people consume.

...funny, tender portrayal of a widowed mother driven to a life of Ziploc bags and gram scales in order to maintain her upper-middle-class status on “Weeds.” Her show has fast become Showtime’s most-watched comedy, according to Nielsen Media Research, with a 19% increase in third-season viewership from the previous season. Equally chest-inflating are the first-run numbers for “Californication,” the largest ever for a comedy on the network, not to mention another honor from the Hollywood Foreign Press for Duchovny...
