Online Advertising Soars
Topics: BlogosphereJulie Roehm has media companies worried. As Chrysler's director of marketing communications she oversees a $2 billion advertising budget that ranks as the sixth-largest pool of ad dollars in the nation.

Do the math: In 2006 roughly $400 million of Chrysler's money that used to go into TV, newspaper, and magazine ads will be spent on the Internet. Says Roehm: "I hate to sound like such a marketing geek, but we like to fish where the fish are."Related: Good News for Blog Advertisers - Blog visitors are 11 percent more likely than the average Internet user to have incomes of $75,000 or more, and are 30 percent more likely to live in households headed by someone between the ages of 18 and 34, the study found.
