Community media reports strong online viewership for Nashua graduations
Summary
A Nashua Community Media representative reported hundreds of live streams and international viewers for recent Nashua High graduations; staff noted streaming-provider counts do not include Comcast viewership data.
NASHUA — During public comment at the June meeting, Daniel (Dan Young) of Nashua Community Media reported streaming metrics for this week’s high school graduations and thanked staff and volunteers for supporting live coverage.
Young said Nashua High South’s coverage showed 838 views over 409 unique viewers and Nashua High North’s coverage showed 1,212 views over 587 unique viewers, with viewership originating from locations including Puerto Rico, Colombia, Taiwan, India and several European countries. "Between those 2 days, we saw viewership from all across the country, Puerto Rico, Colombia, all through Central And South America, Taiwan, India, Guinea, France, Germany, Slovenia, Netherlands, and Brazil," he said.
Pete Johnson, Education Channel administrator, cautioned that those numbers reflect only the streaming provider’s counts and do not include Comcast viewership, which the staff do not receive data for. He and Young thanked the crew that worked live coverage and noted the event coverage helped broaden audience reach for local programming.
The comment was recorded during the board’s public-comment period and did not result in any formal board action.
