It's not shocking, but still a big "wow" when I
see new video platforms emerge and
completely own youth and yet the older media
companies just watch as most made no moves
on distribution or technology. New platforms.
New channels. New talent. YOUTUBE,
PERISCOPE, MEERKAT. You name it. Old
media asleep at the future wheel thinking all
the minutes are going to stay on TV or TV
content...
