"What our relationship with FourthWall Media allows is access to a large stream of near real time set top box data," said Kyle Roberts, CEO, Smart Media Group."This data stream can be matched with individual voter information allowing  Smart Media to know what specific programs voters prefer to view and when.  It's truly a revolutionary step for Smart Media and the political media buying industry, one that will bring a high degree of certainty to the media planning and programming decisions we make on behalf of our clients.  For the first time we are making a direct connection between voter segments and actual live viewing data.
