Abstract:
|
The case describes the problems faced by NBC, one of the leading television networks in the US which dominated the television ratings in the mid-1990s. In early 2000s, due to completion of NBC's hit shows like Friends and ER, the network was in deep trouble.
While NBC was continuously losing its viewers, rivals such as CBS, Fox and ABC had launched blockbuster shows which pushed NBC to the fourth position among the leading US television broadcasters.
The case describes the reasons for the decline in the popularity of NBC and the steps taken by NBC's management to revive the network's fortunes.
