Ryan Seacrest is the most influential TV host in LA
Ryan Seacrest is the most influential television host in LA according to a power grid drawn up by Los Angeles Confidential magazine and Mediaite.
The ranking is based on a number of metrics including total TV viewers, for which Ryan ranks first with 7,500,000, with 50% more viewers than the second most powerful TV host, and twitter where Ryan leads with almost 3 million followers at the time of the survey. Ryan ranked third for web buzz, the number of hits on google, and blog buzz, which is the number of mentions, and fourth for the number of results on google news.
Mediaite explains that these rankings are different because their algorithm takes “metrics such as Google hits, Twitter influence, and amount of airtime on major television networks” into account as well as more traditional methods of determining influence, and they state that the information will change in real time to reflect current events: The Power Grid Explained
