An interview with investigative journalist Gardiner Harris regarding his newly released exposé No More Tears that unpacks Johnson & Johnson's white collar criminality, murderous corporate malfeasance, and myriad coverup conspiracies that have left millions dead.Support the show by subscribing to the PPM Patreon and gain access to a bonus, solo ep that explores Gardiner's father's fascinating career as a bureau chief at Time Inc. and protege of spooky, anticommunist publisher Henry Luce (a mini-primer on Luce's myriad ties to intelligence, Cuban paramilitaries, Gladio via his wife Clare Boothe Luce, and the JFK assassination):patreon.com/ParaPowerMapping***One day in 2004, Gardiner Harris, a pharmaceutical reporter for The New York Times, was early for a flight and sat down at an airport bar. He struck up a conversation with the woman on the barstool next to him, who happened to be a drug sales rep for Johnson & Johnson. Her horrific story about unethical sales practices and the devastating impact they'd had on her family fundamentally changed the nature of how Harris would cover the company—and the entire pharmaceutical industry. His subsequent investigations and ongoing research since that very first conversation led to this book—a blistering exposé of a trusted American institution and the largest healthcare conglomerate in the world.Harris takes us light-years away from the company's image as the child-friendly “baby company” as he uncovers reams of evidence showing decades of deceitful and dangerous corporate practices that have threatened the lives of millions. He covers multiple disasters: lies and cover-ups regarding the link of Johnson's Baby Powder to cancer, the surprising dangers of Tylenol, a criminal campaign to sell antipsychotics that have cost countless lives, a popular drug used to support cancer patients that actually increases the risk that cancer tumors will grow, and deceptive marketing that accelerated opioid addictions through their product Duragesic (fentanyl) that rival even those of the Sacklers and Purdue Pharma.Filled with shocking and infuriating but utterly necessary revelations, No More Tears is a landmark work of investigative journalism that lays bare the deeply rooted corruption behind the image of babies bathing with a smile.***Songs:| The Chemical Brothers - "The Pills Won't Help You Now" || Spiritualized - "Medication" |

Jason Brenner is the RVP of Healthcare & Lifesciences at LiveRamp and has been working in the advertising and ad tech industries for over 20 years. He is leading efforts on building data connectivity solutions for the healthcare and life sciences industries. Prior to LiveRamp, Jason has held leadership positions at Placed, Verve, PayPal, Time Inc., The New York Times, and Condé Nast. In this episode… Companies in industries like healthcare and life sciences are leveraging data collaboration to collect valuable insights to drive innovation and improve customer experiences. However, for many organizations, balancing data collaboration with privacy, security, and regulatory compliance obligations remains a significant challenge. With consumer trust at stake, and the risks of improper data handling, how can companies balance innovation with responsible data use? Data collaboration in healthcare presents both opportunities and challenges. Companies need to adopt privacy-by-design principles and engage legal and privacy teams early in the process. By implementing techniques such as data tokenization and de-identification, businesses can extract valuable insights while minimizing privacy and security risks. That's why companies like LiveRamp are making this process easier with a platform that transforms personally identifiable information into non-reversible tokens, allowing organizations to use data responsibly while minimizing privacy and security risks. In this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels speak with Jason Brenner, RVP of Healthcare and Life Sciences at LiveRamp, about the critical role of privacy and security in data collaboration. Jason shares insights on how organizations are navigating a complex and fragmented regulatory landscape, the importance of adopting privacy-by-design principles, and engaging legal and privacy teams early in the process. He also shares how businesses can minimize data retention risks, the role of de-identification and tokenization in protecting sensitive information, and the importance of building customer trust through responsible data practices.

We discussed a few things including:1. Kay's career journey2. The startup/funding landscape, particularly for women3. Springboard accelerator and thesis4. Trends, challenges and opportunities re new ventures and fundingKay Koplovitz is the founder and former Chairman & CEO of USA Networks, the SyFy Channel and USA Networks International, a multi-billion-dollar cable program company. Ms. Koplovitz ran the network for 21 years before stepping down in 1998, at which time it was sold for $4.5 billion. She is the visionary who created the business model for cable networks by introducing the concept of two revenue streams: licensing and advertising, adopted worldwide. It all started with her insatiable curiosity about satellite communications, a concept she first heard from author Arthur C Clark and his work on geosynchronous orbiting satellites. It was the introduction of satellite distribution into the cable industry that launched an industry. In 1998, then-President Clinton appointed Kay to chair the bipartisan National Women's Business Council (NWBC). Her research found that $104 billion in venture capital went over the transom, but only 1.7 percent went to women. VCs in Silicon Valley told Kay they had never seen any women come to pitch them. It was time to open the door to VC capital and bring women in. By 2000, Kay was compelled to launch Springboard Enterprises, which she co-founded as a nonprofit 501(c)(3) accelerator that propels women-led companies in technology and life sciences to raise capital, now powered by a community of over 5,000 industry specific experts. They lift them to scale and sustainability with access to capital, business partnerships and an entrusted global community. In 2014, Ms. Koplovitz co-founded the New York Fashion Tech Lab (NYFTL.com), bringing promising technology companies in collaboration with the fashion and consumer retail industry. Today they are leading Ai technology integration in Retail.In its 25 th anniversary year, Kay continues as Chairman of Springboard Enterprises, where, under her leadership, the organization's mission is to present and connect essential resources to over 930+ Springboard entrepreneurs. The measure of its success is in the results. A strong 25-year track record validated the value of Springboard Enterprises' alumnae, totaling $61 Billion in value since its launch, with 237 exits to strategic acquirers and 28 IPOs. In 2016, Ms. Koplovitz co-founded Springboard Growth Capital to bring growth-stage investments to women-led companies, building iconic brands with the digital consumer in mind and a path to profitability in sight. She previously served on corporate boards of CA Technologies, Time Inc., Liz Claiborne, Kate Spade, ION Media Networks, Oracle, Instinet, Nabisco, General Re, and over 25 years as trustee on the nonprofit boards of The Paley Center for Media and the International Tennis Hall of Fame.#podcast #AFewThingsPodcast

EVERYONE IS A SALESMAN—In 1995, New York magazine declared Martha Stewart the “Definitive American Woman of Our Time.” And, as the saying goes (sort of), behind every Definitive American Woman of Our Time is another Definitive American Woman of Our Time. And that's today's guest, designer Gael Towey.But let's back up. It's 1982, and Martha Stewart, then known as the “domestic goddess”—or some other dismissive moniker—published her first book, Entertaining. It was a blockbuster success that was soon followed by a torrent of food, decorating, and lifestyle bestsellers.In 1990, after a few years making books with the likes of Jackie Onassis, Irving Penn, Arthur Miller, and, yes, Martha Stewart, Towey and her Clarkson Potter colleague, Isolde Motley, were lured away by Stewart, who had struck a deal with Time Inc. to conceive and launch a new magazine.Towey's modest assignment? Define and create the Martha Stewart brand. Put a face to the name. From scratch. And then, distill it across a rapidly-expanding media and retail empire.In the process, Stewart, Motley, and Towey redefined everything about not only women's magazines, but the media industry itself—and spawned imitators from Oprah, Rachael, and even Rosie.By the turn of the millennium, Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, as it was rebranded in 1997, included seven magazines, multiple TV projects, a paint collection with Sherwin-Williams, a mail-order catalog, Martha by Mail, massive deals with retailers Kmart, Home Depot, and Macy's, a line of crafts for Michael's, a custom furniture brand with Bernhardt, and even more bestselling books. And the responsibility for the visual identity of all of it fell to Towey and her incredibly talented team. It was a massive job.We talk to Towey about her early years in New Jersey, about being torn between two men (“Pierre” and Stephen), eating frog legs with Condé Nast's notorious editorial director, Alexander Liberman, and, about how, when all is said and done, life is about making beautiful things with extraordinary people.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Mountain Gazette, Commercial Type, and Freeport Press.

fWotD Episode 2783: 1271 Avenue of the Americas Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Tuesday, 17 December 2024 is 1271 Avenue of the Americas.1271 Avenue of the Americas (formerly known as the Time & Life Building) is a 48-story skyscraper on Sixth Avenue (Avenue of the Americas), between 50th and 51st streets, in the Midtown Manhattan neighborhood of New York City. Designed by architect Wallace Harrison of Harrison, Abramovitz, and Harris, the building was developed between 1956 and 1960 as part of Rockefeller Center.The building's eight-story base partially wraps around its 48-story main shaft. Both sections are surrounded by a plaza, which has white-and-gray pavement in a serpentine pattern, as well as water fountains. The facade consists of glass panels between limestone columns. The lobby contains serpentine floors, white-marble and stainless-steel walls, and reddish-burgundy glass ceilings, in addition to artwork by Josef Albers, Fritz Glarner, and Francis Brennan. The ground floor also includes storefronts and originally housed La Fonda del Sol, a Latin American–themed restaurant. Each of the upper floors covers 28,000 sq ft (2,600 m2), with the offices arranged around the core. The 48th floor originally contained the Hemisphere Club, which operated as a members-only restaurant during the day and was open to the public during evenings.After Time Inc. expressed its intention to move from 1 Rockefeller Plaza in the 1950s, Rockefeller Center's owners proposed a skyscraper at 1271 Avenue of the Americas to accommodate the move.

Podcast Guest: Joelle MoroneyHost: Kerry CurranTitle: Mastering Influencer Marketing in Regulated Industries: Navigating Compliance, Aligning Brand Goals, and Driving SuccessKerry Curran, RBMA (00:01.067) And welcome Joelle, please introduce yourself and share a bit about your background and extensive experience.Joelle Moroney (00:08.724) Hi, Kerry. So great to be here today. Joelle Moroney, CEO of Creator Collective. We are an advisory boutique firm working with creators, empowering creators, curating technology, as well as a global brand strategy for social impact.Kerry Curran, RBMA (00:26.081) Excellent. So I know, Joelle, you've been in the, you've had a front row seat really in the, to the evolution of influencer and creator and ambassador strategies. So share a bit about what you've seen and how it's changed.Joelle Moroney (00:42.996) Absolutely. So thanks for that tee-up for sure. Starting in, what I would call the first-gen version of influencer marketing in the creator economy with Timing and Conde Nast whereby it was at the time more celebrities and editors that were endorsing and or promoting the best in the breed for services and products through editorial and thought leadership.I was lucky enough to be with InStyle, RealSimple, and Gourmet at the time. And then evolved into analytics, right? Because we all have to monetize the work that we do, which is of course a revenue boost platform. And in doing that, I went into what was cutting-edge technology with Data Zoo which was acquired by Roku, as you may know. And then also of course Yahoo. So.Now here we are fast forward into what I would call 2.0, 3.0 creator version with influencer marketing. I feel that this will continue to proliferate the marketplace as we're looking to have influencers and creators tell brand stories in a very authentic manner that lands with their audiences.Kerry Curran, RBMA (01:55.821) Yeah, so as you've seen the explosion in the 2.0, as you said, what has been the most exciting to you?Joelle Moroney (02:04.268) Well, when I look at this, I think it's more about the fact that we're all creators in our own right. And it's also about letting authentic voices ring clear in verticals that we all care about, whether it's finance, food, travel, technology, there are ways to lean in and learn more about the best places to go, the best places to eat, the best guidance and principles in terms of your investments. We know for a fact that people are now leaning on TikTok and Instagram for advice with their healthcare as they are with their finances. So this is a very powerful platform and the accrued economy is starting to drive not just Fortune 500 companies, but also smaller companies as well.Kerry Curran, RBMA (02:56.237) No, excellent. And you're right. We've seen just how prevalent and pervasive really the TikTok people are getting your rate, financial advice, and healthcare advice. When I was involved with some research last year and actually a number one source reported that, in the survey, the number one source for information related to financial services was actually influencers. So at first, it made me a little bit nervous.Because obviously, you don't want your Tick-8, you know, just a TikTok celebrity giving you investment advice, but then realizing, you know, it looked into it more and it's, there's so much even just general 101, let's get, you know, Dave Ramsey type of, let's get your finances in order type of, type of content out there that is useful, valuable and beneficial.And to your point, having that, the brand kind of drives that conversation or builds the framework for that conversation can be so powerful for brands, financial institutions that want to build those connections with those audiences that are consuming that information and trying to learn and change their financial road. |Talk about, so I love about kind of what your POV and your experience, what you've, you've shared with me is really how you help those kind of more highly regulated brands and institutions build those influencer strategies through that really authentic brand storytelling through brand ambassadors. So share a bit of how you build that framework and kind of start to make sure that you're helping brands connect and drive that audience engagement.Joelle Moroney (04:59.05) Absolutely. So just Kerry, there is a little lag. I don't know if it's on your side or my side with the wifi. You were freezing up a couple of times.Kerry Curran, RBMA (05:04.535) Yeah, it's okay, it'll be okay. It downloads to your computer and then.Joelle Moroney (05:07.606) Okay, cool.Yeah, so I'm glad you brought that up because I do specialize in highly regulated industries, financial services in particular, as well as healthcare. And I say that because there are very strict guidelines that the creators must adhere to, right? In terms of making sure that they are landing within the guardrails of the guidelines for the company. Also, FTC guidelines we have to be mindful of as part of that.And there are very experienced creators that we can curate to make sure that we know they are tried and true and also vetted properly within the selection. So I work with, again, empowering creators directly via talent agents and or creators directly that I have relationships with. Also curating different tech platforms that specialize in those particular areas to make sure that we are properly vetting these creators.It is important because what we're finding more than ever, the CFO and CEO are very concerned, especially in our economic and political environment, that the influencers are going to stay on brand reputation, which is critical, certainly with financial services and different guidelines. And when you're providing this sort of advice, whether it's medical and or financial, there have to be some disclosures.Kerry Curran, RBMA (06:25.177) Mm-hmm.Joelle Moroney (06:35.626) I found in my work with healthcare that there were often ISI guidelines that we would have to put through the feed, which may look like a sort of impediment to some of the actual creator flow, but it's part of the disclosure and it lands well. It's fine. The audience knows that that's an important constituent to that as well.Kerry Curran, RBMA (06:56.483) That's great. And so when you're working with brands, you want to make sure you're tying it back to everything based on their business objectives. know creator and influencer, it can be a shiny objective. We need to do this. I saw a TikTok is big, but talk about how you make sure it really kind of connects to that, that is what they're trying to achieve with their other marketing strategies.Joelle Moroney (07:17.804) Yes. Yes. So I did mention that first and foremost, we want to make sure that we are building out a strategy that is in direct alignment with the business objectives. And then also the key metrics for success. What do the brands care about? What are they being held accountable for? This is where ultimately the ROI comes in and certainly the revenue model. But what we will also do is build out a brand brief so that we are very clear on the targets, the personas, and who they're looking to reach.As well as the actual creator that will be representing the brand specifically. Then we look at the narrative that the client, in my case client, but a brand will want to make sure they're communicating to their audiences, keeping it tight and simple so that we are being very efficient with the creator's content and storytelling. The third element is looking at KPIs, right? Because we want to make sure that we're monetizing this and looking at the analytics.Often I recommend or we look at a hybrid KPI because we're looking to build out awareness, certainly with revenue boost in your platform, you're doing this regularly with different clients, but we're also making sure that we're monetizing this from a building a greater awareness, upper funnel, as well as lower funnel conversions. That said, that will also help predicate what type of creator and who we want to align with the brand because their following will help with the engagement.And for example, there are often brands that want to have awareness with a mega or a celebrity. Let's say Dunkin' Donuts, for example, with Charli D'Amelio. But then you're also going to want to have lower funnel conversion and have micro, and macro influencers who are regular customers at Dunkin' to share their story because we find call to action works well … Kerry Curran, RBMA (08:45.571) Yeah.Joelle Moroney (09:09.998) … when we have audiences that are super hyper-engaged with the micro and mega influencers.Kerry Curran, RBMA (09:17.261) No, that's great. And so you're working with the brand team at the, the, the marketing team and kind of brand lead at the con, the client side, and then building that brief, making sure you're aligned on the creators and the KPIs. And then, you know, talk about kind of how you help them navigate choosing the right creators or influencers to be part of the program?Joelle Moroney (09:43.466) Absolutely. So once we've identified all of the different sorts of framework elements, we then start to look at the influencer discovery process. And a lot of it can be a heavy lift on, certainly on my side, I have different constituents that I work with based on verticals specifically for experts. If we want a financial expert, for example, I tap into my Yahoo Finance category, talent recruitments.But also looking at those tech platforms, I mentioned that curate the different influencers, most recently with Lincia in terms of being an advisor for them. There are, let's say, over a million influencers on the tech platform. There are maybe 20 million in the ecosystem, and two million are actually making money. But what we're doing is using AI tech recognition for logos to look at text logos.Kerry Curran, RBMA (10:27.064) Mm-hmm.Joelle Moroney (10:38.47) … and also just throughout their social feed, the affiliates that they may already have with the current brand. But most importantly, we're also looking at category exclusivity. We're looking at availability. So often you'll pick a sample set of creators to then build that out so that we know that they're on point with the brand strategist and build out different lookalikes to make sure that we have enough influencers that are properly curated so that we know to prove out the success of a campaign.Kerry Curran, RBMA (11:11.083) Excellent. And I know you also talked about diversity being an important aspect of kind of building out that mix of ambassadors and creators.Joelle Moroney (11:21.582) 100%. So we definitely make sure that with every program that we recommend and build our strategy for we have at least 20 % of the creator portfolio filling into the diversity areas, depending on what the brand focuses and their target and persona. It's important to have a different share of voice, and different perspectives as we build out these programs.Kerry Curran, RBMA (11:39.683) Mm-hmm.Excellent. And so as you're building out, especially in the heavily regulated industries, and you mentioned how to make sure you have all of the ISI data, but how do you communicate with the creators to make sure they really understand the brand safety guidelines? I think that's what I would guess is one of the biggest hesitations for specially regulated brands to want to kind of test into the influencer space.Joelle Moroney (12:00.654) Hmm. That's a great point. I think we might've been talking earlier, there's this fine line between allowing the creator to have a free license to build out their creative and keep it very real and genuine and authentic with their audience, but then also staying adhering to the guidelines that are presented to them within the brand brief when we're working with the creator specifically. But it is important that they do stay within those guidelines when speaking to the different brand safety call-outs for a particular program. And they know that going in, but it's also a part of the curation and monitoring that will take shape with the tech platforms to make sure that they're adhering to these guidelines. And the content is reviewed and it is often reviewed by the brand specifically so that we're making sure that we're on point before we go live.Kerry Curran, RBMA (13:09.537) Excellent. So, you know, with creator content, you're reaching their followers and the algorithms are not always the most dependable from that perspective. So it seems it's become more prevalent to add paid media amplification to expand the reach. How are you going about building that into all of your strategies?Joelle Moroney (13:32.394) Absolutely, Kerry. So part of this is we know that we can build out different types of models in working with creators. The organic is fluid. We can estimate and do predictive modeling on impressions and engagement, but it's the paid media amplification boosting, and whitelisting from the influencers handle where we know that we can provide that guaranteed ROI, whatever the KPRs are specifically, whether it's impressions, clicks, or engagements.Kerry Curran, RBMA (13:44.738) Mm-hmm.Joelle Moroney (14:01.518) So that's where we leverage those best assets that we know the creative landed super well in terms of that content engagement with their audience. And then we can build out tests, iterate, and learn what is the best creative assets to leverage into the paid media amplification. And in most cases, we can find 3X lift by leveraging that influencer's handle to do that.Kerry Curran, RBMA (14:25.037) Yeah, so smart. it just extends the kind of value and usage of all of that unique content.Joelle Moroney (14:32.578) That's right. Another component to that is it's just such an efficient way to build out content for O &O channels, for CTV, for programmatic, for display, for recruitment, and for internal. I've done this with other financial services companies where they're doing this with their B2B channel. The influencer may or may not boost within their platform or externally, but they were also using those assets for webinars.Kerry Curran, RBMA (14:38.009) Mm-hmm. That's great. That's great. I mean, there's so much value and the whole benefit to the influencer and ambassador is to make it more relatable and kind of allow the creators to build that promotion, but also share value with their audiences. So it sounds, I know it's easy and amazing and kind of turnkey, but there are still a lot of challenges, especially, with brands that are kind of just getting newer to this. So what are some of the bigger challenges that you've seen and run into that you've had to kind of navigate and help clients with?Joelle Moroney (15:39.638) Yeah, I think that's a fair point. And I was sharing with you too, that just being at Adweek recently in New York, it was evident that most brands realize this is table safe. They should be leveraging the creator economy and influencers to help boost their overall marketing mix. It's proving the ROI. So that's one of the biggest challenges. And part of it is yes, on the creator and or agency tech platform … Kerry Curran, RBMA (16:00.44) Yeah.Joelle Moroney (16:08.48) … models, but it's also on the brand to have that tight API integration with third-party measurement, looking at media mix modeling and attribution to make sure that there's synchronization so that there aren't any inefficiencies in the way in which there's tracking. So that requires a media optimization team to thoughtfully look at the plan to build out that revenue and make sure that we're driving the conversions and or brand lift.Whatever the case may be, whatever tools they may be using specifically. often there will be recommendations, but then it's more about the implementation that is very much a partnership opportunity. And I think there's a lot of growth that needs to happen in that particular area.Kerry Curran, RBMA (16:53.453) Yeah, definitely. Meaning, tying back the investment to actual business results, I know is always a challenge for any media strategy. And especially these days, I think brands are more and more leaning into kind of those lower funnel direct response initiatives because you can measure the click and the web form complete or the purchase. But to your point, it's like this, the kind of...Awareness and engagement strategy-building aspects are so important and I think more brands should be looking at brand lift studies as part of their measurements.Joelle Moroney (17:29.346) That's right. And we know that I think eMarketer just gave a data statistic that there will be 20 billion dollars invested in the creator economy over this next year. That is extraordinary. And that, in my opinion, creators are becoming many media companies in their own right. So back to our original part of the conversation, whether it was Time Inc. in Stoudal, Symbiocor, or May as media companies.Kerry Curran, RBMA (17:39.928)Yeah.Joelle Moroney (17:54.794) Now these creators are individual media companies. So it will be who these brands and or agencies to not lean in, but to learn how best to work with them and to to have a middle zone. Right. Again, we want to make sure that this is landing real and genuinely aligning with the brands, but also within the context of it making the most sense with their brand safety guidelines and what they're building their trust and loyalty with their …Kerry Curran, RBMA (18:07.043) Mm-hmm. Joelle Moroney (18:24.014) … consumers in an authentic way.Kerry Curran, RBMA (18:26.753) No, you're so right. You know, when I speak with a lot of kinds of leaders and the influencer and creator space and over and over, I keep hearing that brands, that's the biggest challenge. Let the creators create the brands they want to control. They're used to, you know, being part of the production and having the actors follow a script. So it's really hard to take that step back and think about, you know, the creators know their audiences, they know what resonates, they know how to get that engagement and the shares. so it's trusting the creator to be the expert on your point. And a lot of them now have their camera crew and their own producers. So it is just a more nimble approach to the more traditional scripted production. And sure, there probably is are still scripted points, but at the end of the day, as you said, as long as it follows the brand guidelines, and especially you can include any legal requirements, whether it's financial or healthcare related, let the creators create, because that's what's going to be most successful for your strategy and execution.Joelle Moroney (19:49.418) Exactly. And then just really completely holistically leveling up the fact that there's a real opportunity to make a social impact in doing this. And I've seen this firsthand with a creator, I work with Sheena Malwani, you know, where she will go on for the American Heart Association to work with the TikTok platform and do a fundraiser live just spontaneously. And when she can do that, …Kerry Curran, RBMA (19:57.527)Yeah, for sure.Joelle Moroney (20:16.064)… and engage your audience to garner revenue for the greater good, and then have a TikTok that will then match those donations. The numbers are exceptional and the revenue can be significant. And I think that's where the kind of spreading the joy aspect of the work that we do can have a lot of social impact on a global level with brands that want to lean into those different categories. So.Kerry Curran, RBMA (20:29.145) Mm-hmm.Joelle Moroney (20:43.416) When I'm working with brands specifically, I think it is important to have a sustainability message and or social impact like a city does with No Kid Hungry. There are just so many different opportunities to find real authentic, genuine connections that are driving revenue. Yes, from a profitability perspective, but certainly also to generate social impact.Kerry Curran, RBMA (21:06.679) Yeah, no, I love that. That's excellent. And so, Joelle, I know, thank you for sharing so much of your expertise with us. One last question is, what is your recommendation for a brand that's ready to get started, especially one in a regulated industry?Joelle Moroney (21:25.686) Yes, I think first and foremost, it's finding a trusted advisor to do that. found great success in having a lot of experience in different verticals, platforms, content, areas to monetize specifically for that brand, finding the vertical of focus in a brand and or tech platform that will help deliver on the KPIs that are most important.But then really aligning with the activation and execution team to do that, to see it through. It's also important that there's an always-on methodology, not just a one-and-done because that can lead to more inefficiencies in doing that.Kerry Curran, RBMA (22:04.801) Excellent, and let the creators create.Joelle Moroney (22:07.498) Let the creators create and have their authentic voice shine through because consumers are super smart.Kerry Curran, RBMA (22:11.747) Yeah.Kerry Curran, RBMA (22:15.171) Definitely.

fWotD Episode 2770: KARE (TV) Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Wednesday, 4 December 2024 is KARE (TV).KARE (channel 11) is a television station licensed to Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States, serving as the Twin Cities area's NBC affiliate. Owned by Tegna Inc., the station maintains studios on Olson Memorial Highway (MN 55) in Golden Valley and a transmitter at the Telefarm site in Shoreview, Minnesota.Channel 11 began broadcasting on September 1, 1953. It was originally shared by WMIN-TV in St. Paul and WTCN-TV in Minneapolis; the two stations shared an affiliation with ABC and alternated presenting local programs. In 1955, Consolidated Television and Radio bought both stations and merged them as WTCN-TV from the Minneapolis studios in the Calhoun Beach Hotel. The station presented several regionally and nationally notable children's shows in its early years as well as local cooking, news, and sports programs. Time Inc. purchased the station in 1957. Under its ownership, ABC switched its affiliation to KMSP-TV (channel 9), leaving channel 11 to become an independent station that broadcast games of the Minnesota Twins baseball team, movies, and syndicated programs. This continued under two successive owners: Chris-Craft Industries and Metromedia. By the late 1970s, WTCN was one of the nation's most financially successful independent stations.In 1978, ABC announced it would move its Twin Cities affiliation to KSTP-TV. This forced NBC to select between KMSP and WTCN for its new local outlet. It chose WTCN on the strength of its facilities, ownership, and promise to build a first-class news operation, for which KMSP had never been known as an ABC station. On March 5, 1979, channel 11 became an NBC affiliate and began broadcasting NewsCenter 11 newscasts. In spite of a major promotional campaign, the news product was a high-profile commercial failure, beaten by entertainment shows on KMSP in the ratings, as viewers rejected the new news team and continued to prefer market leaders WCCO-TV and KSTP-TV.Metromedia agreed to buy Chicago independent station WFLD in 1982 and sold WTCN to Gannett to raise capital and make room in its station group. Gannett engineered a comprehensive overhaul of the station's news programming. Between 1983 and 1987, the station moved from last to first in late news ratings, battling WCCO for two decades. It changed call signs twice in that period, to WUSA in 1985 and KARE in 1986, when Gannett moved the WUSA call sign to its Washington, D. C., station. More recently, as of 2022, the station has been a second-place finisher in local news.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:16 UTC on Wednesday, 4 December 2024.For the full current version of the article, see KARE (TV) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Olivia.
To conclude our trilogy of interviews with prominent tech journalists to celebrate the upcoming twentieth anniversary of the DLD Conference, today's interview is with David Kirkpatrick, author of The Facebook Effect and founder of Techonomy Media. In contrast with Steven Levy and John Markoff, whose attitude toward Silicon Valley doesn't seem have dramatically changed, Kirkpatrick's thinking has undergone quite a radical shift over the last twenty years. As he acknowledges, he's been transformed from a Facebook believer into one of its most acute critics. And, in contrast with Levy and Markoff, Kirkpatrick's intellectual attention has also broadened, shifting from the internet to focusing on technological fixes for global warming.David Kirkpatrick is a longtime technology and business journalist, author and media entrepreneur, known for his work connecting technology developments to societal impact and progress. He is an expert on internet companies and social media, and is now focusing especially on climate tech and the climate economy. He is also known for moderating on-stage conversations with tech leaders. Kirkpatrick's bestselling 2010 book, The Facebook Effect: The Inside Story of the Company that is Connecting the World, was published in 32 languages, including Catalan and Vietnamese. It was a finalist for the Financial Times/Goldman Sachs Business Book of the Year as well as the Gerald Loeb Award. In subsequent years, he has written extensively about the growing societal harms caused by Facebook/Meta and social media broadly. His articles include 2018's Facing Facebook's Failure for Techonomy, and earlier that same year, The Facebook Defect, in Time Magazine. In December 2023 he published Vinod Khosla Can See the Future: It Just Got Hazy for a Minute in The Information. Kirkpatrick founded and for 12 years led Techonomy Media, which hosted conferences on technology, innovation, business, and their connection to social progress. Techonomy's mission was to highlight ways technology could improve society and human lives. Among his numerous onstage interviews there were Mark Zuckerberg, Marc Benioff, John Chambers, Commerce Sec. Penny Pritzker, economist Jeffrey Sachs, Patrick Collison, DARPA Chief Arati Prabhakar, Sen. Cory Booker, Nandan Nilekani, and Sean Parker. He also has served as a moderator at Burda Media's DLD conference for 19 years, interviewing a wide range of leaders including Mark Zuckerberg. Kirkpatrick worked for Time Inc. for 30 years, mostly at Fortune Magazine, where he was for many years senior editor for internet and technology. Many years earlier, while serving as a copy clerk at Life Magazine, he served as unit chairperson of The Newspaper Guild at Time Inc. He founded and hosted Fortune's Brainstorm conference series beginning in 2001 and for six years wrote its Fast Forward column. At Brainstorm he hosted and interviewed Pres. Bill Clinton, Israeli Pres. Shimon Peres, Senator John McCain, and numerous technology and business CEOs. He was a formal participant and moderator at the World Economic Forum in Davos for 21 years, and for 13 years was a member of the Forum's International Media Council, consisting of 100 top global media leaders. He also served for many years as a contributing editor at Bloomberg Television. He is a recipient of the 2012 Silicon Valley Visionary Award, awarded alongside Elon Musk, Jim Breyer, and Sal Khan. He is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators.

Relying on a near half-century of deep research and reflection, Melissa Ludtke recounts her landmark federal case in “Locker Room Talk.” In 1977 and '78, as a Sports Illustrated reporter, Ludtke was the winning plaintiff in Ludtke v. Kuhn, a U.S. federal case that Time Inc. and lawyer Fritz Schwarz Jr. brought against Major League Baseball. In the courtroom, Justice Constance Baker Motley — a civil rights icon — found that MLB commissioner Bowie Kuhn had violated Kuhn's constitutional rights by denying her the same access the male reporters had at Yankee Stadium during the '77 World Series. Neither the legal win nor the affray in the court of public opinion came easily. But within a decade, Ludtke notes, the ranks of female sports journalists had increased enough to start AWSM (Association of Women in Sports Media). Ludtke, a former TIME magazine correspondent, has also worked at Nieman Labs. She lives in Massachusetts and writes the Let's Row Together newsletter on Substack.

In a spotlight episode of The Rebooting Show, I spoke with Affinity Global CEO Lavin Punjabi for his view of how publishers adapt their affiliate operations. Affinity operates NucleusLinks, an affiliate operations platform that serves as something akin to Google Ad Manager for affiliate operations. Some takeaways:Many publishers are playing catch up. Affiliate marketing is one of the oldest internet business models, with its growth turbocharged by the ease and rise of e-commerce. Many legacy publishers were behind in adopting affiliate models, seeing performance ads as scraping the bottom of the barrel compared to impression models. “The biggest publishers in the world are scrambling to compete in this area that they kind of ignored for a generation,” Lavin said.Affiliate stresses silos. The entire idea of affiliate runs contrary to the notion of church and state. At one of The Rebooting's dinners focused on commerce, I heard a large publisher lament how the editorial team would battle to control personal finance reviews rather than the commerce team. They were basically working against each other internally. "Some publishers it's the main thing, but for a lot of marquee publishers, it's a department, and they have to figure out where it fits because it's not really editorial, but it's not really sales."Dotdash Meredith is an anomaly. Dotdash Meredith is the manifestation of these worlds colliding, with the internet-native Dotdash taking over the legacy Time Inc publications. It's telling that as publishers sound the alarm over AI, DDDM has weathered this storm and returned to growth. "They came from a commerce first angle, which is operated with CPS for a large degree. And then eventually with Meredith, which was CPM, they tried to find middle ground."

Cheers to Professor Jackson's post Prohibition conversation with distinguished author Daniel Okrent! Dan is the the author of Last Call: The Rise and Fall of Prohibition, winner of the American Historical Association's prize for the year's best book of American History when it was published in 2011. Last Call was a go-to book in the HTDS bibliography for episodes 157-160 as we researched and selected the stories to tell in these four podcast episodes we've just completed. Dan was also the first Public Editor of The New York Times, where he was charged with being the public's advocate for accurate and objective journalism by the paper. So Prof. Jackson couldn't resist the opportunity to get his perspective on the state of news reporting today which, as astute HTDS listeners know, is often called the first draft of history. Spoiler alert: they both agree one must be a critical thinker when it comes to the potential bias of the news media one consumes – helpful tool here from AdFontes. Dan Okrent is also author of The Guarded Gate: Bigotry, Eugenics, and the Law That Kept Two Generations of Jews, Italians, and Other European Immigrants Out of America, and Great Fortune: The Epic of Rockefeller Center, a finalist for the 2004 Pulitzer Prize in history. Before his tenure at the Times, Okrent spent 13 years at Time Inc., where he was successively editor of Life magazine; corporate editor of new media; and corporate editor-at-large. Earlier in his career, he worked extensively in book and magazine publishing in various editorial and executive positions. He has held fellowships at the Columbia Graduate School of Journalism and the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard (where he was, in addition, the Edward R. Murrow Visiting Lecturer in 2009-2010). ____ Connect with us on HTDSpodcast.com and go deep into episode bibliographies and book recommendations join discussions in our Facebook community get news and discounts from The HTDS Gazette come see a live show get HTDS merch or become an HTDS premium member for bonus episodes and other perks.

Solidor" (which abbreviates to "ass"), " a contemporary artist, from one of the French colonies in the Caribbean, I forget which one" to "satirise the kooky excesses of contemporary photography."

It's Good Friday, March 29th, A.D. 2024. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldView.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus The struggle of a Pakistani Christian student One young Pakistani Christian woman explained how she has been discriminated against in her Muslim-majority nation, according to International Christian Concern. She said, “I faced discrimination at my university while studying at a private university in Lahore. Being the only Christian student in my academic department, a teacher deliberately used to give me an “F” grade because of my faith. I repeated that course three times during the tenure of that teacher, failing to secure a grade other than ‘F.' However, I managed to get an ‘A' as soon as the teacher was replaced.” In John 15:18, Jesus said, "If the world hates you, know that it has hated Me before it hated you.” Open Doors reports that Pakistan is the seventh most difficult nation worldwide in which to be a Christian. More US missionaries rescued from Haiti More U.S. missionaries stranded in Haiti, after criminal gangs overran the country in late February, have been rescued after weeks of waiting, reports The Christian Post. In a Facebook statement Sunday night, Jill Dolan of Love A Neighbor ministry who has been working as a missionary in Haiti since October 2013 with her husband, Ryan, reported that she was among those waiting to be rescued. In the midst of national turmoil, a helicopter rescued the Dolan Family. She wrote, “The five in our family who were stuck in Port-au-Prince for 24 days are out of harm's way. However, we leave behind our three children that we are in the process of adopting as well as over 200 kids in our care at the orphanage.” Dolan arrived in Florida at 9 p.m. Saturday. She explained on Facebook that “the crisis in Haiti reaches way beyond just where the gangs are present. The stronghold on the country and the ability for goods and gasoline to travel freely throughout the country have been greatly impacted. Skyrocketing prices, business shutdown, banks closed ... the list goes on. Just when we think it can't get worse in Haiti, it does.” Jill Dolan and her family's Love A Neighbor ministry lived out Matthew 22:37-39 in which Jesus said, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.'” Biden officials talking about a multinational force in Gaza Biden administration officials are in preliminary “conversations” about options for stabilizing post-war Gaza, including a proposal for the Pentagon to help fund either a multinational force or a Palestinian peacekeeping team, reports Politico.com. The options being considered would not involve U.S. troops on the ground, according to Defense Department officials who spoke on the condition of anonymity. Instead, Pentagon funding would go toward the needs of the security force and complement assistance from other countries. Asked for comment, a senior Biden administration official said “we are working with partners on various scenarios for interim governance and security structures in Gaza once the crisis recedes.” It could be weeks or months before Washington and its partners approve any plan, especially since regional players want to see a commitment to a so-called two-state solution before seriously engaging with the options. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has categorically rejected the “two state solution” which would establish an independent State of Palestine alongside the State of Israel, in the region west of the Jordan River. Chemical abortion has 4 times the complications as surgical abortion On Tuesday, March 26th, the Supreme Court held a 90-minute long hearing about the Abortion Kill Pill, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Today, 63% of mothers who choose to abort do so chemically with mifipristone, not surgically. First, it's deadly to the baby, blocking the hormone called progesterone which God created to stabilize the lining of the uterus. This, in turn, cuts off blood and nourishment to the baby who then dies of starvation inside the mother's womb. Second, the Abortion Kill Pill is dangerous to the mothers who swallow it. Chemical abortions have four times the complications compared to surgical abortions. Indeed, since it came on the market in 2000, the percent of visits to the Emergency Room as a result of chemical abortions, has soared by 500%. In 2020 alone, when 500,000 mothers aborted their babies with the Abortion Kill Pill, 25,000 of them either went to the emergency room or required surgical follow-up. Because they were unable to expel the dead baby, they experienced hemorrhaging, bleeding, and infection which can be life threatening. That's why in August 2023, the Fifth Circuit Court reinstated three minimal standards for the Abortion Kill Pill which: limited the use of the Abortion Kill Pill to the first 7 weeks of pregnancy. ended mail-order chemical abortions. and required in-person medical visits prior to the Abortion Kill Pill being prescribed. Abortion Kill Pill manufacturer complains it is harmed According to Live Action's reporting, there were “four shocking admissions” from the case, including the claim by Danco, the private Abortion Kill Pill manufacturer, that restricting their sales would “injure” their business. Justice Samuel Alito reiterated to Danco attorney Jessica Ellsworth that the Fifth Circuit Court's ruling would not prohibit Danco from selling mifepristone, the Abortion Kill Pill. However, it would prohibit it from being sent through the mail which would limit its sales. ALITO: “I gather your injury is that you think you are going to sell more if the restrictions that previously were in place were lifted.” ELLSWORTH: “Yes.” ALITO: “So, you're going to make more money?” ELLSWORTH: “The injury is that we are prevented from selling our product in line with FDA's scientific judgement about the safe and efficacious use of the drug.” ALITO: “And you're going to be harmed because you're going to sell more.” ELLSWORTH: “Certainly, a company's ability to market its product is a part of how it considers the regulatory scheme that governs its conduct.” Life Magazine makes a comeback And finally, more than two decades after it was shuttered by Time Inc., Life Magazine will be revived, according to the Hollywood Reporter. Shuttered in 2000, Life became known for using photographs to tell stories of the news of the week. Bedford Media, the holding company founded by model and entrepreneur Karlie Kloss and her husband, investor Josh Kushner, has acquired the publishing rights to Life. Josh is the brother of Jared Kushner, Donald Trump's son-in law. Kloss said, “We see Life as an uplifting and unifying voice in a chaotic media landscape.” Close And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Good Friday, March 29th in the year of our Lord 2024.

Dolly Chugh is an award-winning psychologist at New York University. She studies how and why most of us, however well-intended, are still prone to race and gender bias, as well as what she calls “bounded ethicality.” Dolly's work has been covered on the TODAY Show, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, the Atlantic, The goop Podcast, NPR, Dr. Phil, and other media outlets. And Dolly's TED Talk was named one of the 25 Most Popular TED Talks of 2018 and currently has more than 5 million views. Prior to becoming an academic, Dolly worked at Morgan Stanley, Merrill Lynch, and Time Inc. Dolly earned a psychology and economics degree from Cornell University and an MBA, M.A. and PhD from Harvard. In this episode we discuss the following: Just as our brains are limited in how quickly they can process and store information (bounded rationality), our brains are also limited when it comes to ethical decision making (bounded ethicality). By using systems, we can safeguard ourselves against some of our biases. So, for example, rather than just hiring for fit, and possibly perpetuating inequality, we can formalize the hiring system and hire for behavioral competencies. Just as we need financial literacy to understand finance and how to invest, we also need psychological literacy to understand ethics and how to behave ethically.

Today's episode is sponsored by BetterHelp. Dr. Robin Stern is not your average psycho-therapist – she's renowned for her work in emotional intelligence, relationships, and well being. And she's the psychological sleuth who's highlighted one particularly culty behavior: gaslighting. Fun fact: Dr. Stern actually coined the phrase “the gaslight effect.” As we know, gaslighting is straight out of the culty charismatic coercive fuckwad playbook. But we want to get specific and don't mean to merely call names. So in this episode, we go full CSI on gaslighting with Dr. Stern. We dissect the term with the expert who wrote several books on the subject: The Gaslight Effect and The Gaslight Effect Recovery Guide. NOTES - Dr. Robin Stern is co-founder and associate director of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence and is a licensed psychoanalyst who's been in private practice for over 30 years. She hosts the Gaslight Effect podcast. She's developed and co-created social emotional learning apps including HowWeFeel and OjiLifeLab. She writes and is interviewed regularly for her insight into socio-emotional matters for Psychology Today, The Hill, Time Inc., and Harvard Business Review. You can find her on Twitter and Facebook. If you're looking for more, here's an early ALBC episode specifically about narcissism and gaslighting: Shameless: Dan Shaw on Gaslighting, Narcissists, & Recovering from Cultic Abuse Also… Let it be known far and wide, loud and clear that… The views and opinions expressed on A Little Bit Culty do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the podcast.
