  • 21 Types of News
    21 Types Of News In the fIrst several chapters, we saw media systems in flux. Fewer newspaper journalists but more websites, more hours of local TV news but fewer reporters, more “news/talk” radio but less local news radio, national cable news thriving, local cable news stalled. But what matters most is not the health of a particular sector but how these changes net out, and how the pieces fit together. Here we will consider the health of the news media based on the region of coverage, whether neigh- borhood, city, state, country, or world. Hyperlocal The term “hyperlocal” commonly refers to news coverage on a neighborhood or even block-by-block level. The tradi- tional media models, even in their fattest, happiest days could not field enough reporters to cover every neighborhood on a granular level. As in all areas, there are elements of progress and retreat. On one hand, metropolitan newspapers have cut back on regional editions, which in all likelihood means less coverage of neighborhoods in those regions. But the Internet has revolutionized the provision of hyperlocal information. The first wave of technology— LISTSERV® and other email groups—made it far easier for citizens to inform one another of what was happening with the neighborhood crime watch or the new grocery store or the death of citizens can now snap a beloved senior who lived on the block for 40 years. More recently, social media tools have enabled citizens to self-organize, and connect in ever more picture of potholes and dynamic ways. Citizens can now snap pictures of potholes and send them to send to city hall, or share city hall, or share with each other via Facebook, Twitter or email.

  • The Invisible Hand
    Laura Martin, CFA • [email protected] • (917) 373-3066 June 22, 2012 Dan Medina • [email protected] • (212) 705-0295 Entertainment & Internet NeedhamNeedham InsightsInsights Providing in-depth analysis of significant industry issues Martin’s Meditations The Future of TV: The Invisible Hand Since 1776, Adam Smith’s “invisible hand” has been a central intellectual tenant of markets and free enterprise. The TV ecosystem is one of the best case studies of the invisible hand at work. This report analyzes the Internet’s video ecosystem that may one day unseat the incumbent TV ecosystem. It also estimates jobs lost and consumer value destroyed if the government interferes with this transition. There are several important reasons the TV ecosystem has not suffered the same fate as music and newspapers in the digital age, including: ¾ Value Proposition. Consumers pay about $0.30 for every hour of TV they watch. ¾ Technology. Television has always embraced technology to improve its product. A media business predicated on technology is less likely to be disrupted by technology. ¾ Content. There is no hit-driven content business that can thrive unless the entire slate is funded ahead of time. If you allow consumers to pay for hits only, 80% of programming never earns money. ¾ Fierce Rivalries. The TV ecosystem consists of about two dozen enormous companies engaged in vicious negotiations every 5-7 years over who adds more value and why. Increasingly, they miss contract deadlines, but eventually negotiate how each can add more value to the TV ecosystem. ¾ Diversity Wins. AOL, MySpace and Yahoo are examples of dominant Internet platforms that were obsolete within 20 years.

  • Here and Now UK Hyperlocal Media Today Damian Radcliffe
    Home team wins match 2-1 Showers expected Station Hospital Local hospital Town Hall to close H Council meeting – follow live here MP’s MP’s Vote on expenses, Vote on School the latest local bypass Library Here and Now UK hyperlocal media today Damian Radcliffe Foreword 3 Foreword Local media plays two important roles in people’s lives. It is both functional, telling them what is going on, where and when, and also emotional, helping them to feel like they belong to their local community. People feel attached not just to their city, town or village, but also to their neighbourhood and street. Location-based technologies, especially mobile devices, offer a potential revolution for very local (‘hyperlocal’) media that can deliver at this level of scale. Over the last few years, the UK has seen many launches of online local media services that attempt to deliver hyperlocal content. But traditional media providers have found it hard to adjust their high-cost models to a sufficiently local area. Meanwhile, hyperlocal bloggers find it difficult to develop a critical mass of audience and to define the right business models to grow their offers into more sustainable services. Little evidence is publicly available on the success or failure of these services. NESTA believes that a diverse and sustainable hyperlocal media can build both public and economic value. Together with our partners, NESTA is seeking to help support this nascent sector and to better understand its potential. This review is the start of meeting this ambition. It maps the current landscape of hyperlocal activity in the UK, bringing in international examples where relevant.

  • Investor Presentation AOL, Inc. May 23, 2012 Overview of Starboard Value LP
    Investor Presentation AOL, Inc. May 23, 2012 Overview of Starboard Value LP Starboard Value LP is a deep value oriented investment firm that specializes in investing in underperforming companies and analyzing alternative strategies to unlock value for the benefit of all shareholders. – Our approach to investment research begins with a deep fundamental understanding of a company’s businesses, end markets, and competitive positioning. – We compile information from a variety of publicly available sources, including our own primary research, as well as interviews with industry executives, consultants, customers, partners, competitors, and other investors. – We evaluate each company with an open mind and welcome constructive discussions with management regarding corporate strategy and their vision for the future. Starboard has been making active investments in public companies for over ten years. – We generate returns through an increase in shareholder value at our portfolio companies. – Our interests are therefore directly aligned with those of all shareholders. Over the past ten years, Starboard has added or replaced approximately 85 corporate directors on approximately 32 corporate boards. (1) – We understand the requirements of public board service and how to be effective in the boardroom while remaining professional and constructive. Although it is difficult to quantify the direct impact of change in board composition on stock price performance, in our experience it has had a material positive impact. According to 13D Monitor, a leading independent research provider on shareholder activism: – “Starboard’s average return on a 13D filing is 22.3% (versus an average of 2.9% for the S&P500 during the same time periods). However, when they have received a board seat, their average 13D return has been 31.6% versus 1.5% for the S&P500.”(2) (1) Includes investments that Starboard's investment team managed while at Starboard's predecessor, Ramius Value and Opportunity Master Fund, Ltd 2 (2) Published in the “Activist Spotlight” section of Barron’s on April 28, 2012.
