Advertising accounts for morethan half of the sector's revenues, Deutsche Bank said. The high dividend yield from media, Europe's fourth-mostlevered sector, could also prove illusory if dysfunctionalcredit markets mean debt refinancing is either unavailable orpunitively expensive, Deutsche Bank said. The brokerage, however, said professional publishers remaina relative safe haven, and raised Anglo-Dutch publisher ReedElsevier Plc (REL.L) to "buy." Deutsche Bank said its top picks in the sector are ReedElseiver, Italy's Mediaset SpA (MS.MI), United Business Media(UBM.L) and Vivendi (VIV.PA) based on attractive yieldcharacteristics, margins, market leadership and no balancesheet issues.
