[Update] "I think it is a good news report," PMB president Steve Ferley told Marketing magazine. "The readership data are stable and you can't run away from that."

The readers-per-copy average of 4.82 compares with 4.8 in the fall, while average time a respondent spent reading a magazine was 42.1 minutes, compared with 41.3 minutes in the fall of 2009 and 40 minutes in 2006.

"Readers per copy is flat and time spent reading might even be ticking upward slightly," said Ferley of the relative stability for magazine publishers. "In a world where everybody is concerned about fragmentation [of media] this is what is happening."
