Remember your objectives
People vs algorithms
Content, context & influence matter
Print delivers scale & reach
… and it works
In particular, beware of experts declaring the end of things – (show blog – the tragic end of practically everything. Scroll down, stop on the newspaper bit)
Newspapers are dead. Technology is destroying them. People no longer read newspapers, in fact Steve Jobs famously said that no-one reads any more. News comes just from TV or the internet. And online, everyone can be a journalist now, the ability to publish free to all.
It can also work as social currency, a way of fuelling conversations, which also came out strongly. It gives people a talking point and they can share banter and socialise.

Well, until recently, it was predicted that the depth of this relationship would noticeably decline as new digital competitors began to replace newsbrands with their own news content. Whether it was Sky News, Huffington Post, Google or Facebook, it was assumed that this was the news landscape of the future.
In fact, the reverse appears to be happening. Newsbrand content on mobile devices, laptop or PC screens, via social media or through the search engines is becoming more ubiquitous, better read and more engaging than ever before. As with most legacy media, it has been a case of ‘what doesn’t kill us makes us stronger’.
One of our filmed interviewees – Andrew – is a good example of this multi-platform relationship…
