Hearst Corporation & Code and Theory Partner on Launch of New Source: Hearst February 10, 2014 09:15 ET Hearst Corporation & Code and Theory Partner on Launch of New Hearst.com Website NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Feb 10, 2014) - Hearst Corporation and Code and Theory today announced the relaunch of Hearst.com, the new fully responsive destination for news content from one of the nation's largest diversified media and information companies. Challenging the notion of what the public face of a corporation should be online, Hearst worked with Code and Theory to bring to life a responsive, flexible, and scalable design that highlights the company's eye for innovation, imagination and inspiration. "Hearst has a rich 125-plus-year history as a dynamic, forward-thinking corporation," said Steven R. Swartz, president & CEO, Hearst Corporation. "We knew it was time for a bold, new website that reflected these values. The end result is striking, and allows us to communicate our massive breadth of content, business divisions, interests and achievements better than ever before." "It's a site that's built for longevity and change," said Mike Treff, managing partner of the Product Design Group at Code and Theory. "Every company changes over time, but most templatized design systems are too rigid to accommodate any major transformation. It's why we built the new Hearst.com on a flexible design system that allows for growth as the company expands, and enables them to keep the site feeling fresh, every single day. It gives people a reason to come back." As part of the launch, the company is also releasing a newly redesigned Hearstlink, an e-newsletter that is sent to more than 20,000 employees working across hundreds of diversified businesses around the world. Starting this week, for the first time ever, Hearst is offering a new weekly public edition of the Hearstlink e-newsletter, which is available to anyone. To subscribe, visit Hearst.com and sign up in the header or footer of the site with your email address. The relaunch of Hearst.com represents the first project of larger collaboration between Hearst and Code and Theory. The team is currently building a next-generation, scalable design solution to sit across more than 20 Hearst Magazines consumer brands. The first of those will roll out in spring 2014. "We first asked ourselves: 'Why do people visit our site?'" Swartz said. "Maybe you're a company with a great idea looking for a partner; maybe you're a new employee who wants to get more involved; maybe you're a reporter looking for more information on our latest television programming. The beauty of our new site is that it makes finding specific information easy for any type of visitor, but it also encourages serendipitous discovery." Key to the new responsive design is the customized Content Management System (CMS), which Code and Theory designed and built from the ground up. It offers a much easier way for Hearst's communications team to add, update and surface existing site content on the fly, and build e-newsletters with just a few clicks. About Code and Theory Code and Theory is a creative company that designs products and brand experiences across platforms. With offices in New York, San Francisco, and London, the agency works with a diverse set of brands including Dr Pepper Snapple Group, Maybelline New York, Burger King, Comcast, Vogue, Mashable, and many others. Additional information is available at www.codeandtheory.com. About Hearst Corporation Hearst Corporation (www.hearst.com) is one of the nation's largest diversified media and information companies.

  • Disney/Fox: Disney Proposes Divesting A&E Channels to Address European Commission Concerns
    Vol. 6 No. 379 October 26, 2018 Disney/Fox: Disney Proposes Divesting A&E Channels to Address European Commission Concerns Deal Update Disney has proposed divesting the A&E Networks’ channels in Europe to allay competition enforcers’ concerns with its planned acquisition of 21st Century Fox, according to a source familiar with the matter. Under the divestiture proposal, Disney would retain the rights to use the trademarks and logos of the channels, according to the source. Disney submitted the offer on October 12 as part of the European Commission’s Phase I review of the transaction, in an effort to stave off an extended Phase II investigation that would extend into 2019. The commission sent out the proposal for market testing to a number of European downstream providers of television services on October 16, with responses due October 23. But at least one TV retailer has told the EC that the remedy as proposed would not solve its concerns that a combined Disney/Fox would wield too much power post merger in negotiations for the wholesale supply of TV channels, the source said. Television overlap. Although European television markets vary on a nation by nation basis, a combined Disney/Fox will control important channels in a number of national markets, sources said. In Germany, for example, Fox licenses FOX, National Geographic Channel, Nat Geo People, and Nat Geo Wild, the market’s third most popular pay-TV channel. Disney controls important channels in the German market, and licenses Disney Channel Germany on free TV, and Disney XD, Disney Junior and Disney Cinemagic on pay-TV.
