2 Magazine Media’s Most Trusted Source Since 1947 10/19/2015 minonline.com Steve Smith's App Review Apple News: Still Waiting for That Revolution Apple comes into any market with exaggerated expectations. It has a pesky tendency to rearrange whatever room it enters. And so expectations (mine, at least) for Apple News may be unfairly high, albeit prompted by Apple itself. After all, it prom- ised a more highly-curated human experience to news aggregation when it first revealed the program in June. Apple married this with high-profile media partners (many of them magazine brands) and algorithms that were supposed to respond to user tastes and behaviors. In the end, after months of daily use in beta and a formal release, I remain mixed about Apple’s success. The app’s strengths in design and in maintaining partner-brand integrity are undermined by some basics of news delivery and curation. On the upside, there are nice Apple-like design touches here. The basic method of discovering news providers and topics, adding them to one’s mix, and managing con- tent are exemplary. The "Explore" tab in the app does an excellent job of targeting my behaviors and current app mix with providers that match. A tier of suggested media brands coincide with a group of general topics, along with featured media brands and specific news topics that are driven by current events. I also found the "Search" func- tion to be very effective. Basic sharing and saving functionality are clean and strong. You can bookmark stories for later use, share using iOS 9 internal tools, and even consult your past history of news viewing. I like that you can long-press on a story to get basic sharing and saving tools. On the new iPhone 6s, you can hard press to get a preview of the item. Also exemplary is the news reading experience itself. Individual brands that take advantage of the Apple formatting will be rewarded with layouts that communicate their individual brand, retain their site advertising, and even suggested reading from within the brand. Unlike some other aggregation partners, Apple is giving readers the opportunity to get hooked on a media brand. In their dedicated sections, media brands can use top-line tabs to divide content into sections, and the brand’s banner is persis- tent throughout the experience. Parallax scrolling and large splash images feel much better than most thumbnail grabs found in other aggregation apps. Obviously, in-feed native ad placements work best here. I also like the smooth technique the inter- face uses for entering and exiting articles. In many ways this is more in tune with a touch interface than Flipboard’s page metaphor. What is to complain about, then? Well, the basic newsfeed interface is surprisingly awful. On an iPhone the feed is an uninspired scroll of headlines and thumbnails. On the iPad the interface mixes up the formatting, but provides no extra text content to preview a story. The media branding of each article is as feint as native ad labeling. Currency seemed to dominate the feed, so CNN and The New York Times overwhelms the flow often, and there's no attempt to provide serendipity or topical variety. Worse, my iPad and iPhone experi- ences are different, as the app doesn't seem to be smart enough to carry over my preferences from one platform to the other. But once you drill into topic areas, which will provide greater variety, the Apple News tech- nology really seems to break down. In many topics, I found tremendous story redundancy, the APP REPORT CARD bane of aggregation apps that should have been a first priority for Apple to fix. Additionally, some of the algorithms are just plain broken. In my “Books” topic, for instance, Apple seems to User Experience B- think that "The Walking Dead" is the only subject worth covering.

10/19/2015 Magazine Media’s Most Trusted Source Since 1947 5 minonline.com Google and Facebook Compound Publishers' Ad Tech Problems Confidence about taking on the alpha dogs of online publishing–Google and Facebook–is still a bit shaky among online pub- lishers. According to a new survey of media executives responsible for ad operations by eConsultancy and , only 26% of those surveyed felt their online display advertising revenues were growing quickly. The plurality­—34%—characterized display growth as “growing slowly.” At least from an ad ops perspective, the distinct market advantages Google and Facebook enjoy, and growing concerns about ad fraud, blocking and the lack of viewability standards are causing concern among publishers. At this week’s Media- Post Publishing Insider Summit, Evolve Media COO Mike Didge admitted that if projections of ad blocking rise from the cur- rent 16% to 17% of users to 35%, "That’s a real impact on our business. We don’t have a solution for that now.” But as the eConsultancy survey points out, one of the biggest choke points for independent publishers is that they're com- peting with behemoths in the market that control both ad tech and content. More than three quarters (80%) of respondents admit that they won’t be able to compete against Google and Facebook unless they can target known subscribers at scale. And 79% voice frustration that allowing universal logins through Google, Facebook, Twitter and others, leaks data to their ad competitors. The problem is acute because of a fundamental weakness for most publishers—a­ lack of technology and partnerships to effectively target at scale. In fact, only 61% say they can use internal technology or a DMP to target registered subscribers, 51% by audience type or persona and 49% by content category. The real threat is in the move to mobile, however. Only 47% of publishers say they can track use identity across devices and platforms. When asked to identify the key challenges for grow- ing display advertising, the cross-device conundrum dominates, with 33% citing an insufficient scale to recognize individuals online and across channels and 32% citing an inability to recognize consumers across devices. As a result of these challenges to targeting at scale, independent publishers are looking towards pooling more data among partners and extracting higher premiums for their audiences. The survey finds that 37% put a high premium on the ability to target IDs across devices and platforms, while 35% see that high premium opportunity for targeting registered subscribers and 33% for targeting live visitor intent (behaviors).

"They originally reached out to [former] CL editor-in-chief, Sarah Gray Miller," he says. "I had Jane invite them to the CL holiday party that we hosted in our Chappaqua, N.Y., home. We would again meet several times in early 2014 to draw up a business plan." McGill says the Meredith Corp. partnership went from a "substantiative meeting in Sep- tember 2014 to a signed agreement this spring." The recent debut of Beekman 1802 Alma- nac–"a seasonal quarterly with fresh-from-the-farm inspiration"–has minimal advertising (six pages), but campaigns from Overstock Farmer's Market, Country Inns & Suites and Time Warner Cable have Ridge and Kilmer-Purcell in them. McGill wouldn't disclose the other investors he reached out to. Wladar and Miller were casualties of HM's relocation of CL to Birmingham, Ala., and both might of joined him at Beekman 1802 had they not chosen to relaunch Modern Farmer in the same capacities. "They earned salaries there before they would have here," he says. Also playing a key role as editor is Gina Hamadey, former Food & Wine travel editor. McGill's publisher stints at Hearst were at Motor Boating & Sailing, Sports Afield, CL (he didn't work with Wladar), Popular Mechanics and SmartMoney. He was also Hearst Magazines' International senior VP from 2006-2012. A Siempre Mujer 'Estrella' Is Born September was Siempre Mujer's 10th anniversary, and the celebration included Univision's "Despierta America" morning show (pictured below) with editor-in-chief and Meredith Hispanic Media group content director, Cristy Marrero, who ap- peared on September 29 to announce that 18-year-old Shakira Bonilla was the winner of the magazine's second annual "la musa de Siempre Mujer" cover contest. Bonilla was selected for the October/November cover by editors and readers for both her beauty and determination. Even as a teenage mother, this has not stopped her from pursing a college degree in business administration. Bonilla received a scholarship award from the University of Miami's Division of Con- tinuing and International Education, and UM senior director of corporate relations Sasha Dolgicer was on hand to present it. In 2005, Meredith went from zero Spanish- language brands to two as SM was joined by Parents spinoff Ser Padres. SM was in the planning stages when Meredith acquired the latter two plus Family Circle that June from Bertelsmann (Gruner + Jahr).
