The composition of a daily television newscast is developed through a complex web of highly detailed decision making processes. Hundreds of alternatives are evaluated, preferences are considered, program managers weed through the plethora of possible choices, finally the decisions are made. Lineup selection includes the review of various options between which stories will be included in the local, national and international news segments. Newsroom staff must decide what will be included in terms of top stories, special reports, and most importantly, the regular feature news segments ÃÂ all of which are based on assumptions of viewer preferences. Television program ratings are useful and do provide detailed information, ( i.e. the number of people in each age group who are watching each quarter hour can be identified) however ratings do not reveal an individualÃÂs feature preferences. Our group project objective is to use the conjoint analysis to assist in the quantifying of viewer preferences among five specific feature segments, using three attributes and up to five levels.
