If you look at the data, New York is - today - the center of the media universe. Headquarters for 29 of global media companies - New York is 2.4x larger than the next ‘HQ’ city (Paris with 12 HQ’s).

NYC has the largest share of US media jobs. NY has 20.4% of magazine publisher employment, 15.4% of book publishing jobs, 11.5% of motion picture jobs, and 11.2% of advertising jobs (19.6% of ad agency employment).

But the nature of media is changing fast, and the future of both media itself and New York’s role in it was the question asked as a 2 year study and exploration was conducted.
