The Future of Media: AI, Niche Companies, and Non-Media Brands

The Contrarian Marketing Podcast, episode 20
2

This episode is available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.

In this episode of Contrarian Marketing, we discuss the current state of media based on the near-bankruptcy of Vice and the shutdown of BuzzFeed News.

We think smaller, niche media companies can provide content that larger media companies cannot fulfill, and non-media companies like retailers can fund media teams to fill the gap.

We predict that AI will play a significant role in the future of media, for example, in gathering and distributing news and sports coverage.

We also announced plans to create a highly curated Slack group for solopreneurs to share experiences and help each other navigate the challenges of running a business. Apply!
