ChristianNewsWire.com is reporting that a recent survey of television viewers shows that the Gospel Music Channel (GMC) is considered #1 in its value. The Digital Cable Subscriber Study was conducted in July 2009 by BETA Research and the results were just released today. The survey is done every year to get feedback from cable subscribers on their feelings about a wide spectrum of channels offered to them. This year’s survey covered 43 cable networks.
GMC was tied in its rank of perceived value with the NFL Network, and ranked #1 among African Americans, women, men, and 18-49 yr-olds. The channel greatly improved its ranking from 2008 when GMC ranked #6. The founder and president of GMC, Charles Humbard, states that “This is a resounding third-party endorsement of the high value that we deliver to our affiliates and viewers alike. We’ve grown so rapidly and these results show that viewers are discovering GMC — and loving it.”
The survey proves that a majority of viewers desire quality, family-oriented television.
