Notes:
11 pages., Pages 204-216 in Proceedings of the NCR-134 Conference on Applied Commodity Price Analysis, Forecasting, and Market Risk Management, Chicago, Illinois > 1981-1999 Conference Archive., Researchers estimated net reach and average frequency of exposure to publicity about a case of chicken contamination in the U.S. "It was found that for each unit of increase in weekly publicity frequency, prices were depressed by 1.2 percent, leading to a $760 million retail loss to the chicken industry. This amounts to less than one-quarter of one percent of revenue over the 10 years studied."
