Here is this week's curated selection of?#MediaRevenue?news:

The updated Journalism Competition and Preservation Act (JCPA) bill, explained

"A change to the Journalism Competition and Preservation Act proposed in the US means The New York Times, The Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal won’t be able to negotiate with big tech using the law."

Competition, preservation, and the news-platform dynamic

"The News Media Alliance, which supports the bill, notes in a Q&A that the Journalism Competition and Preservation Act “is inclusive of conservative publications, such as Breitbart, The Daily Caller, Newsmax, and The Washington Times.”"

Disney Explores Membership Program Like Amazon Prime

"Disney is exploring a membership program that could offer discounts or special perks to encourage customers to spend more on its streaming services,?theme parks, resorts and merchandise."

Netflix Ad Tier Launch Moved Up to November to Get Ahead of Disney+

"Netflix’s ad-supported is set to go live Nov. 1 in multiple countries, including the U.S., Canada, U.K., France and Germany."

Comcast Looks to Cut Up to $1 Billion From Budgets at Its TV Networks

"NBCUniversal Chief Executive Officer Jeff Shell has asked his top deputies to find savings at its legacy cable and broadcast TV networks."

NBC Considers Cutting Back Programming Hours in Prime Time

"NBC could seek to move up the start time of its late-night programming block including ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.’"

Frustrations Mount at Washington Post as Its Business Struggles

"With digital subscriptions and digital advertising revenue stagnating, the company is on a pace to lose money this year."

“IT’S A GOLD MINE”: INSIDE?THE WASHINGTON POST’S BIG HOLLYWOOD DEAL

"DC paper’s partnership with Imagine and CAA, which already has four projects in development."

New sports betting series “Odds Against” debuts on The Washington Post

"The Post shines a light on sports betting’s rapidly growing industry."

Gannett revealed that it laid off 400 employees and cut 400 open positions

"The announcement comes more than two weeks after Gannett, the nation’s largest newspaper chain with more than 200 papers, executed a round of layoffs starting Aug. 12."

Gannett increases subscribers by 35% in 1 year

"For Gannett, which owns USA Today and has more than 200 media outlets in 45 states, that means altering the course of a very large ship. And Wadsworth acknowledged that it hasn’t been fast or easy."

How to fill the gaps in local news

"Whether seeking to revive local news in longstanding news deserts or newer ones, stakeholders – including policymakers, industry executives, venture capitalists, philanthropic organizations, universities, scholars and ordinary citizens – are confronted with multiple challenges."

No, the Green Bay Packers are not a realistic business model for your local newspaper

"Running a local news site is quite different from running a multi-billion-dollar football team! And before this model gets out of hand, let’s look at a few of the most important reasons why."

Allure Magazine to Cease Print In?December

"Allure Magazine is switching to an exclusively digital model."

Better Collective enters into commercial partnership with Boston.com

"It is part of a continued effort to diversify revenue for the site beyond traditional advertising."

The Daily Wire has $180m in revenue, nearly 1m paying subs

"The Daily Wire, the right-wing media entity founded by?Ben?Shapiand?Jeremy?Boreing?in 2015, is that rare thing—an actual growth company that, unlike The Lincoln Project or Independent Journal Review or Breitbart, has the discipline to not light its success on fire."

Use cases demonstrate news publisher monetisation options

Mather: "Data collection, data quality, and building the right model are important and often overlooked by inexperienced data science teams. Equally important, however, is the organisation’s ability to clearly define a business use case along with the practical ability for non-technical business stakeholders (such as marketers and newsrooms) to implement solutions within the tech stack."
