That's despite secular changes impacting many sub-sectors of the media universe and the cycling off of political ad spend, Olympics, and World Cup. This is depicted in the charts below showing the various media sub-sectors compared to the US HY Indices on both a yield and spread basis. The outlier is obviously radio, as has been the case for several years running, less because of fundamental industry trends and more due to debt-laden Cumulus and iHeartMedia's dominance of the category (debt outstanding).
