💨 Instagram åbner for boost af flere typer indhold

Fra Social Media Today:

“Ever tried to boost con­tent with GIFs, stick­ers, or copy­right­ed music and faced an error? Give it anoth­er go. Instagram’s lat­est update to boost­ing now means that most GIFs and stick­ers are now eli­gi­ble to be boost­ed.”

🎶 Nu kan du dele musik direkte fra Spotify og Apple Music til TikTok

Fra TechCrunch:

With the launch of a new “Share to Tik­Tok” fea­ture, music fans will be able to direct­ly share tracks from both Apple Music and Spo­ti­fy to the short-form video app, includ­ing by post­ing to their For You feed, their Sto­ries, or DMs (direct mes­sages).

LinkedIn has pro­vid­ed some advice on how to make the most of its new, full-screen, ver­ti­cal video feed, which is essen­tial­ly its effort to lean into the Tik­Tok con­tent trend, via short-form clips that grab atten­tion.

😠 Threads' "For You"-algoritme skabte frustration på valgdagen

Fra TechCrunch:

Frus­tra­tions were par­tic­u­lar­ly high on Threads, Meta’s X rival, where many users com­plained about see­ing hope­ful posts about a Kamala Har­ris win, and those urg­ing vot­ers to “stay in line” or tout­ing ear­ly results as a “red mirage,” even after it was clear that Har­ris was los­ing ground to Pres­i­dent-elect Trump in bat­tle­ground states. Those posts con­tin­ued to appear after a Trump vic­to­ry was near­ly real­ized, as if users had tem­porar­i­ly time-trav­eled to the past.

🤔 Musk har gjort X til en politisk platform

Fra Plat­former:

Today, Musk has trans­formed X into a polit­i­cal oper­a­tion designed to get Trump elect­ed at all costs. That means not only host­ing elec­tion mis­in­for­ma­tion, but active­ly pro­mot­ing it. Some of these claims might appear to have got­ten mil­lions of views — and this alone will be used to pres­sure oth­er media out­lets into cov­er­ing the sto­ry, and oth­er plat­forms to con­tin­ue host­ing it or even ampli­fy­ing it.

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.

🤗 Ny forskning: Mediebrugere vil gerne møde journalister som mennesker

Fra Nie­man Lab:

Based on this study, at least, that impres­sion was wrong. Instead of the jour­nal­ists’ tra­di­tion­al pro­fes­sion­al val­ues, audi­ences empha­sized human ele­ments: approach­a­bil­i­ty, empa­thy, and skills in com­mu­ni­cat­ing clear­ly and in ways that emo­tion­al­ly res­onate.

One audi­ence mem­ber sum­ma­rized these val­ues suc­cinct­ly: “I think that a jour­nal­ist has to be a very approach­able per­son, espe­cial­ly when it comes to inter­views. The jour­nal­ist has to build trust to be able to address all the top­ics. So, above all, I think a jour­nal­ist has to be very empa­thet­ic, a per­son very open to lis­ten­ing as well.”

✅ TV 2 samler på falsk journalistik

Fra Jour­nal­is­ten:

I en ny kam­pagne opfor­dr­er TV 2 danskerne til at sende dem fal­sk ind­hold, som de møder på SoMe-plat­formene. Ambi­tio­nen er at lave jour­nal­is­tik på eksem­plerne

👊 Syv magtkritiske, amerikanske non-profit-medier

Fra Weird I/O:

If you’re look­ing for sig­nal, here are some non-prof­it news­rooms that speak truth to pow­er on a nation­al scale. You can fol­low all of them for free; all of them could also use your sup­port.

💡 Sådan ville Telegraph dække valget på Reddit

Fra Journalism.co.uk:

Del 3: Business og strategi

Her kan du læse nogle af ugens his­to­ri­er og ten­denser inden­for for­ret­ning­sud­vikling i mediebranchen. Alt­så det, der han­dler om at tjene penge.

🔮 Kommer der et nyt "Trump bump"?

📈 NYTimes runder 11 mio. abonnenter

Fun fact: På nærmest præ­cis samme tid­spunkt sid­ste år passerede man de 10 mio. abon­nen­ter, som man kunne læse i Ugerevy #45, 2023.

Fra Medi­aWatch:

😬 Afhængighed af Google Discover er et risikabelt spil

Fra Press Gazette:

Many pub­lish­ers are increas­ing­ly reliant on Google Dis­cov­er for their dai­ly traf­fic num­bers, but some are play­ing a risky game. 

😢 100% digitale B.T. skal spare igen

Fra Medi­aWatch:

🙅‍♂️ BBC-formand fraråder abonnement og annoncer

Fra Medi­aWatch:

For­man­den men­er ikke, BBC skal ind­føre sig en abon­nements- eller annon­ce­mod­el, og han vil desu­den have en per­ma­nent lovtekst, der beskyt­ter pub­lic ser­vice-insti­tu­tio­nen mod poli­tisk ind­b­land­ing.

💵 JFM investerer i Turnering.com

Fra Medi­aWatch:

Mediekon­cer­nen JFM har investeret i Turnering.com, der er en tech-plat­form til plan­lægn­ing og admin­is­tra­tion af turner­inger.

🤔 Kan Trump blive Googles redning?

Fra Reuters:

Trump is expect­ed to con­tin­ue cas­es against Big Tech, sev­er­al of which began in his first term, but his recent skep­ti­cism about a poten­tial Google breakup high­lights the pow­er he will hold over how those cas­es are run.

🔷 Google kuraterer annoncemarkedet

Fra Digi­day:

To under­stand why this is such a big deal, it’s impor­tant to under­stand what cura­tion is: It’s the process of using audi­ence, con­tex­tu­al and sup­ply chain sig­nals from pub­lish­ers to curate col­lec­tions of auc­tions across var­i­ous sell­ers, essen­tial­ly cre­at­ing a stream­lined ver­sion of the open auc­tion.

🔮 Sådan kan du gå fra journalist til konsulent

Fra Journalism.co.uk:

A career change does not need to be expen­sive or time-con­sum­ing. Con­sul­tan­cy often leans on the skills you have acquired over the course of many years work­ing in news. But shift­ing gears to client-based work can seem risky.

🤖 Perplexitys AI klarede sig godt på valgdagen

Fra TechCrunch:

Elon Musk’s Grok failed almost instant­ly, offer­ing wrong answers about races’ out­comes before the polls had even closed.
