Bolstered by a strong economy, as well as increased automotive, telecommunications and dot.com advertising spending, the broadcast television industry posted a moderate 4.4% gain in 1999, despite the loss of the political and Olympic advertising that drove growth in 1998. Growth in 1999 was comparable to that of 1995, the last year that followed a Winter Olympics and a Congressional election.
