Digital advertising is eating away at traditional advertising budgets but now that online has become the largest media category, there’s a new trend taking hold – digital stealing share from digital, reports Media Life Magazine.

Gordon Borrell, CEO of Borrell Associates, talked to Media Life about what makes the site so appealing to local advertisers, how much it stands to grow, and why Facebook could stay relevant for years to come and you can read the interview here.
