North Suburban Communications Commission Cable Study Interest in Programming Content All respondents were asked a series of questions about the types or categories of programming that they would be most interested in watching on local community channels. A scale of 1 to 5 was used with a "Y being "very interested" and a "1" being "not interested at all." The category receiving the greatest number of "very interested" responses from all respondents was local news & information (26.3%). The table below illustrates the results for all 10 categories tested. I'm now going to read a brief list of types of programs that are shown or could be shown on the local community channels. After each, please tell me whether you would be interested in watching this type of programming on a scale of "1" to "5" with "6" being "Very Interested" and "1" being "Not Interested at All." 1 - Not Interested 5 - Very Don't at All 2 3 4 Interested Know Community festivals, neighborhood events 29.5% 14.5% 32.0% 9.8% 10.8% 3.5% CTV channels in high definition from Comcast 49.8% 13.0% 16.0% 6.3% 9.0% 6.0% Ethnic & cultural programs 33.8% 22.3% 24.8% 13.5% 3.3% 2.5% Informational programs about services and activities of local organizations and clubs 27.8% 20.0% 32.0% 11.8% 6.3% 2.3% Live concerts and other performances 21.0% 13.0% 28.0% 19.5% 15.5% 3.0% Local church services and spiritual programs 41.8% 21.0% 17.3% 9.8% 6.3% 4.0% Local news and information 16.8% 11.5% 30.3% 13.3% 26.3% 2.0% Local sports and recreational activities 26.5% 19.8% 26.3% 15.5% 10.0% 2.0% Programs about local history, arts and artists 27.5% 11.3% 30.8% 15.5% 12.5% 2.5% Political programs 36.8% 13.0% 23.0% 16.3% 8.5% 2.5% Group W Communications, LLC 18
