Del 1: Sociale medier 

Her find­er du his­to­ri­er om eller fra de store sociale plat­forme, der har en enorm rolle at spille i kon­tak­ten mellem udgiver/afsender og mod­tager.

🦠 SSI bekæmper misinformation på Twitter

Fra Jour­nal­is­ten:

"For eksem­pel til den Har­vard-uddannede epi­demi­olog Eric Fei­gl-Ding, der til sine godt 692.000 føl­gere skriv­er, at danske poli­tikere har mis­tet for­standen, når nu døds­fald stiger ekspo­nen­tielt.

Men Statens Serum Insti­tut går i rette med ham. Ifølge dem har Fei­gl-Ding mis­forstået de danske tal."

🤷 Nu hedder Facebooks "News Feed" bare "Feed"

Fra Social Media Today:

"Pri­mar­i­ly, Face­book is mak­ing the change because the men­tion of ‘news’ in ‘News Feed’ was appar­ent­ly con­fus­ing for some. 

As report­ed by Alex Heath from The Verge, the “news” label has led some to believe that there are only news sto­ries in the main stream, but not nec­es­sar­i­ly posts by friends."

🇩🇰 Medier bruger "betydelig mængde tid" på at moderere

Afsæt­tet for debat­ten er Anne Kirs­tine Cra­mon har val­gt at trække sig som klummeskribent hos Berlingske. Tonen er for hård, og hun men­er, at Berlingske i nogle til­fælde har vægtet klik højere end hende.

"Jeg har nok selv under­vur­deret eller mis­forstået, hvad Cra­mon havde brug for," siger Berlingskes deba­tredak­tør, Pierre Col­lignon, til Jour­nal­is­ten.

Fra Medi­aWatch:

"Både Poli­tiken og Jyl­lands-Posten bruger en bety­delig mængde tid på at overvåge og mod­erere sociale mediers kom­men­tar­spor, når indlæg med mulighed for at antænde debat­ten bliv­er bragt."

Do pub­lish­ers need an exit strat­e­gy from social media?
Media Voic­es

♥️ Nu kan du også like Stories på Instagram

For­di inter­ak­tion er alt, tilsyneladende.

Fra Social Media Today:

"Insta­gram has added a new, sim­ple way for users to engage with Sto­ries con­tent with Sto­ries likes, which enables you to ‘like’ any Sto­ry in your feed, and let the cre­ator know, with­out hav­ing to start up a DM con­ver­sa­tion."

🤖 Twitter klar med bot-mærkater

Fra Social Media Today:

"Twit­ter is tak­ing the next step in adding more trans­paren­cy to the tweet process by rolling out its new bot labels, which devel­op­ers will now be able to vol­un­tar­i­ly add to auto­mat­ed accounts."

🇺🇦 TikToks rolle i krisen om Ukraine

Fra Wired:

"As troops amass on Ukraine’s bor­der, civil­ians cap­ture it all on cam­era. Online sleuths are now unpack­ing the details. [...]

If Rus­sia invades Ukraine, don’t expect the Tik­Toks to stop. From small Belaru­sian vil­lages to indus­tri­al Russ­ian cities on the Ukrain­ian bor­der, as the tanks and troops have rolled in, local res­i­dents have cap­tured the scenes on their phones—and uploaded what might one day be cru­cial evi­dence to social media."

🛑 Twitter blokerer porno i Tyskland

Fra Wired:

"A num­ber of accounts have been van­ished as Twit­ter bows to pres­sure to make it hard­er for chil­dren to find adult con­tent online."

🤔 Lytter Facebook til de forkerte brugere?

Fra The Atlantic:

"Most pub­lic activ­i­ty on the plat­form comes from a tiny, hyper­ac­tive group of abu­sive users. Face­book relies on them to decide what every­one sees."

🧑‍⚖️ Texas sagsøger Meta ifm. ansigtsgenkendelse

Fra The Wall Street Jour­nal:

"The Texas attor­ney gen­er­al filed a suit against Face­book par­ent Meta Plat­forms Inc. on Mon­day, charg­ing that the social-media giant’s long­stand­ing and now dis­con­tin­ued use of facial-recog­ni­tion tech­nol­o­gy vio­lat­ed that state’s pri­va­cy pro­tec­tions for per­son­al bio­met­ric data."

Del 2: Digitale tendenser

Her kan du læse nogle af ugens ten­denser inden­for medi­er. Det kan være en ny metode eller til­gang, branchen forsøger at tage til sig.

🇩🇰 Det ser sort ud for Google Analytics...

Fra Version2:

"Sorte sky­er omkranser Google Ana­lyt­ics i Dan­mark, efter det franske datatil­syn i sid­ste uge bakkede op om Østrigs kon­klu­sion: Google Ana­lyt­ics er ulovligt i EU. Danske virk­somhed­er skal kigge efter alter­na­tiv­er, for det bliv­er næsten umuligt for det danske tilsyn at gå imod kol­legerne i EU."

🔬 Kulturministeriet vil have undersøgt vores liv med paywalls

Fra Medi­aWatch:

"I Dan­mark er vil­lighe­den til at betale for dig­i­talt nyhedsind­hold forholdsvis lav især i sam­men­lign­ing med de øvrige nordiske lande. Der­for udby­der min­is­teri­et nu et pro­jekt, som bl.a. skal afdække mediernes overve­jelser i forhold tll brug af betal­ingsmure."

Fra Kul­tur­min­is­teri­et:

Pro­jek­tet har til for­mål at under­søge, hvilke typer af nyheds- og aktu­alitetsind­hold, der er frit tilgæn­gelige, og hvilket ind­hold det kræver betal­ing at få adgang til. Pro­jek­tet skal sam­tidig afdække, hvilke overve­jelser medierne gør sig i forhold til plac­erin­gen af ind­hold foran og bag ved betal­ingsmure, samt hvilke kon­sekvenser dette har for danskernes adgang til rel­e­vant nyheds- og aktu­alitetsind­hold.

👍 Google vil begrænse tracking på Android

Fra The Wall Street Jour­nal:

"Google plans to adopt new pri­va­cy restric­tions to cur­tail track­ing across apps on Android smart­phones, fol­low­ing Apple Inc. in putting restraints on an adver­tis­ing indus­try that has covert­ly col­lect­ed data across bil­lions of mobile devices."

😢 Det ser også sort ud for Firefox

Fra Wired:

"Across all devices, the brows­er has slid to less than 4 per­cent of the market—on mobile it’s a measly half a per­cent. 'Look­ing back five years and look­ing at our mar­ket share and our own num­bers that we pub­lish, there's no deny­ing the decline,' says Sele­na Deck­el­mann, senior vice pres­i­dent of Fire­fox.

Mozilla’s own sta­tis­tics show a drop of around 30 mil­lion month­ly active users from the start of 2019 to the start of 2022. 'In the last cou­ple years, what we've seen is actu­al­ly a pret­ty sub­stan­tial flat­ten­ing,' Deck­el­mann adds."

🎧 Apple Podcasts får nye filtermuligheder i iOS 15.4

Fra 9 to 5 Mac:

"Apple has qui­et­ly updat­ed its Pod­casts app in iOS 15.4 beta to include new fil­ter options when brows­ing shows in your library or in the Apple Pod­casts cat­a­log. Once you choose a pod­cast, there are now options to fil­ter episodes by played, unplayed, down­loaded, or saved."

😬 Risiciene ved at bruge transkriberingstjenester som Otter

Det her bør du læse, hvis du er en jour­nal­ist, der bruger tjen­ester som Otter.ai til at lave udskrifter af dine inter­views.

Fra Politi­co:

"Or to secu­ri­ty agen­cies of a for­eign coun­try. When I asked Otter to clar­i­fy whether it shares user data with non‑U.S. gov­ern­ment or law enforce­ment agen­cies, the answer wasn’t com­fort­ing.  [...]

Otter dis­tances itself from what might hap­pen to per­son­al data the com­pa­ny shares with third par­ty users. 'We are not respon­si­ble for the con­tent, pri­va­cy and secu­ri­ty prac­tices and poli­cies of such third par­ties or App providers,' Otter’s pri­va­cy pol­i­cy warns. 

Jour­nal­ists are, by and large, aware that noth­ing is real­ly ever pri­vate in this day and age. But the dan­gers of tran­scrip­tion apps are most­ly fly­ing below the radar."

😳 Datatilsynet opfordrer til at droppe IABs samtykkeløsning

Fra Medi­aWatch:

"Det bel­giske datatil­syn men­er, den europæiske bran­cheo­r­gan­i­sa­tion IAB Europe, som bl.a. Danske Medi­er og Berlingskes ejere er medlem af, med sit ram­meværk for cook­ie-sam­tykker til annon­cer­ing overtræder reglerne for per­son­da­ta. Datatil­synet i Dan­mark bakker op om afgørelsen."

💲 Bonnier kan høste frugterne af digital omstilling

Fra Medi­aWatch:

"Et struk­turelt faldende print­marked har bar­beret hun­dred­er af mil­lion­er af mag­a­s­in­husets toplin­je og tvunget sel­sk­a­bet ud i opdyrkn­ing af de dig­i­tale væk­st­mark­er. Omstill­in­gen har taget flere år og resul­teret i bl.a. abon­nementsmure omkring flere mag­a­s­in­brands på net­tet. Nu kan Bon­nier Pub­li­ca­tions høste frugterne."

🇺🇸 Sådan arbejder fire udgivere med at gøre brugere til abonnenter

Fra Digi­day:

"Gan­nett, Salon, The Atlantic and The Dai­ly Beast have all rec­og­nized that read­ers have become pick­i­er about what they are will­ing to sub­scribe to, espe­cial­ly now that so many prod­ucts and ser­vices are sub­scrip­tion-based busi­ness­es. So iden­ti­fy­ing the best can­di­dates and speak­ing to them cor­rect­ly is more impor­tant than ever when fill­ing their fun­nels with prospec­tive sub­scribers.

This is how the four news pub­lish­ers are approach­ing their sub­scrip­tions busi­ness­es in 2022."

🎤 Mediano og Podimo i samarbejde

Fra Medi­aWatch:

"Medi­anos tre nye pod­cast­for­mater vil give et boost til Podi­mos sport­skat­a­log. Medi­ano har hyret nye folk ind til opgaven og hov­ed­pro­gram­mer holdes ude af eksklu­siv-aftal­en."

🔒 Meta og Mozilla arbejde på privacy-venlig attribuering

Fra MarTech:

"The solu­tion would allow adver­tis­ers access to aggre­gate data on cam­paign per­for­mance with­out links to indi­vid­ual user behav­ior."

🤝 Derfor solgte The Athletic til New York Times

Fra CNBC:

"Being part of The New York Times’ bun­dle is key to the company’s future growth, they said.

The total address­able mar­ket for sub­scrip­tion sports jour­nal­ism is in ‘the tens of mil­lions,’ said co-founder Alex Math­er."

😮 Spotify betalte muligvis 200 mio. dollars for Rogan

Fra The New York Times:

"The deal that brought his pod­cast to Spo­ti­fy is said to be worth over $200 mil­lion, more than was pre­vi­ous­ly known. Accu­sa­tions that he spreads mis­in­for­ma­tion have roiled the com­pa­ny."

💰 ...og køber nu Chartable og Podsight

Fra Medi­aWatch:

"Stream­ingt­jen­esten offentlig­gjorde ons­dag, at den har købt to pod­cast-virk­somhed­er, Chartable og Pod­sight, der skal give nye og stærkere værk­tø­jer til pod­cas­tan­non­cer­ing på Spo­ti­fy."

🤨 Instagrams deling af annonceindtjening undervælder medier

Fra Digi­day:

"Last year Insta­gram final­ly opened up a video ad-rev­enue shar­ing pro­gram for pub­lish­ers. How­ev­er, the finan­cial flood­gates are far from open, accord­ing to par­tic­i­pat­ing pub­lish­ers.

'Under­whelmed' is how one pub­lish­er described their view of the mon­ey they are mak­ing from upload­ing long-form videos — for­mal­ly labeled IGTV — to Insta­gram. Oth­er pub­lish­ers used stronger lan­guage."

📈 BBC udvidere forretningen i Nordamerika

Fra Digi­day:

"The BBC wants to fill more than 20 edi­to­r­i­al posi­tions in the U.S. and Cana­da, which would dou­ble its dig­i­tal news team in North Amer­i­ca and expand its cov­er­age for BBC.com and the BBC News app. Execs hope it will help grow rev­enue oppor­tu­ni­ties."

Del 4: Udvikling og tech

Her får du et kig på nogle af ugens his­to­ri­er inden­for den dig­i­tale udvikling og teknolo­gi, der enten direk­te eller indi­rek­te kan have betyd­ning for medier/udgivere.

🔮 Kan Meta få monopol på metaverset?

Fra Recode:

"It wasn’t imme­di­ate­ly clear what Mark Zucker­berg want­ed to do with Ocu­lus when Face­book bought the vir­tu­al real­i­ty head­set mak­er back in 2014. Those plans are now com­ing into focus: Face­book is now called Meta, and it’s not just a social media com­pa­ny, it’s a meta­verse com­pa­ny. And as the new name implies, Meta wants to win in this space, just as Face­book won in social media.

But a grow­ing group of reg­u­la­tors, politi­cians, and advo­ca­cy groups are rais­ing con­cerns about Meta’s plans in this realm."

🤖 Hvordan kan AI hjælpe med brugerengagement?

Fra Journalism.co.uk:

"News­rooms can use new tech to solve a few headaches, like mak­ing sci­ence jour­nal­ism more acces­si­ble or increas­ing read­er loy­al­ty with tai­lored con­tent rec­om­men­da­tions"

😞 "Big Tech" sløver innovationen

Fra MIT Tech­nol­o­gy Review:

"Sur­pris­ing­ly, a major cul­prit is technology—specifically, pro­pri­etary infor­ma­tion tech­nol­o­gy in the hands of large firms that dom­i­nate their indus­tries.

We’re accus­tomed to think­ing of tech­nol­o­gy as cre­at­ing dis­rup­tion, in which inno­va­tions intro­duced by small­er, new­er com­pa­nies enable them to grow and ulti­mate­ly replace old­er, less pro­duc­tive ones.

But these pro­pri­etary tech­nolo­gies are now sup­press­ing indus­tri­al turnover, which has declined sharply over the last two decades. "

🦾 Hvad kan Deep Blue lære os om AI's fremtid?

Fra MIT Tech­nol­o­gy Review:

"What AI real­ly needs in order to move for­ward, as many com­put­er sci­en­tists now sus­pect, is the abil­i­ty to know facts about the world—and to rea­son about them. A self-dri­ving car can­not rely only on pat­tern match­ing. It also has to have com­mon sense—to know what a fire truck is, and why see­ing one parked on a high­way would sig­ni­fy dan­ger. 

The prob­lem is, no one knows quite how to build neur­al nets that can rea­son or use com­mon sense. Gary Mar­cus, a cog­ni­tive sci­en­tist and coau­thor of Reboot­ing AI, sus­pects that the future of AI will require a “hybrid” approach—neural nets to learn pat­terns, but guid­ed by some old-fash­ioned, hand-cod­ed log­ic. This would, in a sense, merge the ben­e­fits of Deep Blue with the ben­e­fits of deep learn­ing."
