Once the ball dropped in Times Square last week, the TV business quickly snapped out of holiday mode. The New Year is kicking into high gear this week, with both CES and the TCA winter press tour attracting a good portion of the industry's attention and attendance. The blue-sky feel of both events is an apt backdrop for some updates about Broadcasting & Cable as the magazine heads into its 85th year. In 2015, we celebrated the 25th anniversary of the B&C Hall of Fame and in our pages and on our website delivered insightful coverage of hot topics-everything from measurement and advertising turbulence to the spectrum auction and TV station ownership consolidation. We took readers to the set of Good Morning America as the program marked 40 years on ABC; we brought them inside the "peak TV" debate and coverage of grim landmark shootings in San Bernardino and Roanoke; and we charted the "silent revolution" of cloud-based video delivery. We offered comprehensive coverage of the surging Hispanic, multicast and NewFronts marketplaces; broke stories about the resilient syndication/distribution sector; and got regulators to explain their stances on mega-mergers and classifying the Internet as a utility.
