Cudos one and ALL

Right on Meidas Touch!

That was a huge mistake.

And she's doing an impeccable job of it.

... a president insinuate himself into the affairs of a private enterprise like Trump has. It just wasn't done. Y'know, the 1st Amendment, and antiquated concepts like that. But then, what did Dubya say about the Constitution? "It's just a piece of paper!"
God bless the Republican Party! Or is it God DAMN the Republican Party? Yeah, that tracks.

Rumors? Inside stories?

Your post has me salivating to see her tossed out on her ass.

There. I fixed it.

Pound sand, CBS!

There is still money in entertainment, but the days of providing news and shaping national opinion are waning.

It won't disappear completely for a few more decades, just as we have a few newspapers till doing news. But people are moving to other sources for information. Meidas is positioning to be a prominent source as this evolution continues.

They have over 6 million subscribers on Youtube. They are approaching a million on Substack, plus some amount across the podcast channels. I don't know how this equated to a DAILY reach, but it is certainly ALREADY on a scale similar to the legacy teevee networks.

A key point is that, in the new media universe, content and distribution are two different things. In the legacy days, Walter Cronkite was the content and he was on one channel. In this new media world, the content reaches audiences through many different distribution paths. People like Larry Ellison are still thinking in legacy terms -- to own the network. But the networks are becoming less valuable.
