Comscore Secures Expansion Agreement with Cordillera Communication

Local broadcasting group grows use of Comscore’s local measurement service and Advanced Audience segmentations

RESTON, VA, January 23, 2018 – Comscore today announced an agreement with local broadcasting group Cordillera Communication, expanding its existing relationship to include local TV ratings for WLEX (NBC) in Lexington, Ky., KATC (ABC) in Lafayette, La. and KOAA (NBC) in Colorado Springs, Colo. In addition to local ratings measurement information, the expansion agreement includes access to Comscore’s Advanced Audience behavioral segmentations for automotive and political ratings.

Cordillera owns and operates television stations and digital news platforms in 11 geographically diverse small- and medium-sized markets, serving more than 2.3 million U.S. households. Lexington, Lafayette and Colorado Springs join Corpus Christie, Texas, where Cordillera already leverages Comscore’s stable and granular local market measurement services.

“We are excited to continue to grow our relationship with Cordillera Communication,” said Steve Walsh, executive vice president of local market sales at Comscore. “This expansion further highlights the value that our local measurement insights provide to our partners in markets across the U.S.”
