S1E02: Multi-Platform Madness

Remember when news just meant linear broadcast? In case you've been trapped in a cave for the last decade or so, the new normal is a proliferation of platforms—linear broadcast, OTT, on-domain, in-app, and let's not forget the all-important social channels. Sure, it's important to consider how to deliver to all these channels, but the bigger question is what to deliver. In this episode, we ask: How has multi-platform delivery changed how news is reported? How are broadcasters thinking about tailoring content across channels and determining their optimal mix of platforms?
