Her er BBCs regler for journalister på sociale medier

The Guardian:
"BBC jour­nal­ists have been told to avoid any online “vir­tu­al sig­nalling” that could indi­cate a per­son­al polit­i­cal view, as part of a crack­down on their social media accounts by the new direc­tor gen­er­al, Tim Davie.

The rules announced on Thurs­day explic­it­ly state that all BBC employ­ees’ social media accounts – even if labelled as a per­son­al account – should be con­sid­ered to be sub­ject to pub­lic scruti­ny."

Facebook vil – også – streame spil

Medi­aWatch:
"Face­book vil gøre det muligt at streame spil via det sociale medies plat­form på samme måde, som man i dag stream­er film. Mod­sat konkur­renter som Google og Microsoft vil Face­book i første omgang tilbyde cloud-gam­ing gratis til brugerne."

Det kom­mer dog ikke til at virke på iOS, skriv­er CNBC og Pro­to­col. Og det er Face­book naturligvis ikke til­fredse med:

"Apple treats games entire­ly dif­fer­ent­ly from every oth­er form of con­tent," Jason Rubin, Facebook's VP of Play, told Protocol's Seth Schiesel. "We intend to find a way, but it's real­ly, real­ly hard."

DMJX skal undersøge pengene i podcasts

DMJX:
"Pro­jek­tet ’For­ret­ningsmod­eller og fremtid­sudsigter for det danske pod­cast­marked’ skal over de næste 15 måned­er blandt andet under­søge, hvilke fak­tor­er, der påvirk­er pod­cast­lyt­ternes betal­ingsvil­lighed samt, hvor­dan man gør pod­cast­pro­duk­tion rentabel.

Under­søgelsen er støt­tet med 340.000 kro­ner af Aller­fonden og har i alt en bud­getramme på 750.000 kro­ner

Den gen­nem­føres af Aske Kam­mer, der er docent i mediein­no­va­tion og Thomas Spe­jl­borg Sejer­sen, som er adjunkt ved Mediepro­duk­tion og Ledelse."

Danskerne vil have flere algoritmer i medierne

Jour­nal­is­ten:
"Men tre ud af fire respon­den­ter i under­søgelsen men­er, algo­rit­mer kan spille en vigtig rolle i udvæl­gelsen af nyhed­er, hvis det sker i samar­be­jde med jour­nal­is­ter og redak­tør­er. Blandt de unge respon­den­ter er det 94 pro­cent, som tror på, at samar­be­jdet med algo­rit­mer kan gøre os bedre til at vælge det rigtige ind­hold til brugerne.

De unge er også mest pos­i­tivt stemt over for at fjerne den men­neske­lige fak­tor fra lignin­gen. Hver fjerde respon­dent født efter 1997 synes, det er i orden, at algo­rit­mer alene udvæl­ger, hvilke nyhed­er der er rel­e­vante, og selv pub­licer­er dem uden men­neske­lig kon­trol."

Listen to News overtager Radio 24syv-navnet

BT:
"Fre­mover skal plat­for­men hed­de 24syv, fortæller direk­tør Chris­t­ian Grøn­lund. Et navn, der sikkert vil få mange til at tænke på den tidligere talera­dio Radio24syv. Og sam­men­faldet er ikke helt til­fældigt.

For plat­for­men, som eksis­ter­er i form af en app, skal nem­lig have alle pod­cast fra den tidligere kanal liggende, lige­som de pro­gram­mer, som over­levede Radio24syvs nedlæggelse, vil være at finde der."

Kritik af Spotify: Rogan interviewer konspirationsteoretiker

Spo­ti­fy har købt Joe Rogan og hans pod­cast-univers for en kæmpe sum. Det bety­der, at de bliv­er en del af diskus­sio­nen, når deres pod­cast-won­der inter­view­er kon­tro­ver­sielle per­son­er om kon­tro­ver­sielle emn­er.

TechCrunch:
"That issue was high­light­ed in the last day, when Joe Rogan — the high­ly paid pod­cast­er with a lib­er­tar­i­an bent — brought on Alex Jones (of InfoWars fame, whose own pod­cast was removed from Spo­ti­fy, along with YouTube and oth­ers, in 2018) on to his show for a mean­der­ing three hours, lead­ing to an uproar over how Spo­ti­fy is giv­ing a spot­light and micro­phone to an infa­mous pur­vey­or of mis­in­for­ma­tion."
