Happy Monday War & Peaceniks!
Last week I wrote about how Netflix’s very bad 1Q marked the end one era and the beginning of a new beginning in the Media Universe.
Today, IndieWire released an interview I did on the unceremonious demise of CNN+ and how Corporate Media always evolves 18 months slower than it needs to. Next week The NewFronts start. Then The Upfronts.
Suffice to say, I have a lot to say. Instead of writing it down today, Wednesday I will spill all the tea - live on The Zoom.
Our monthly meet up, WebinWar & Peace is this Wednesday, April 27 at 4p EST/1p PST, for 45 minutes. It’s FREE for Premium Peaceniks. The link/password are below.
We’ll focus on how to fix Netflix, and who might buy it; look at three other companies (Roku, Spotify and Meta) in similar Squid Games; talk about the changing advertising economy ahead of The Upfronts; make predictions for the rest of 2Q earnings; and answer whatever questions you have.
I hope you can join!
Enjoy the week!
