- How are News Corp. and the Fox Group doing post corporate split?
Better than expected. Bigger is increasingly not necessarily better. - Is there more than one standard of beauty out there?
Increasingly, it looks like the answer is “Yes.” British fashion shop Debenhams’ releases body-positve lookbook with diversity in every sense of the word. - What can Jane Austen and Walter Scott teach us about copyright?
Maybe that changes in copyright law oftentimes benefit a very limited number of people? - How much longer will broadcast TV matter?
It’s not looking good. AMC’s Walking Dead got higher ratings than Sunday Night Football in the key 18-49 demographic that advertisers prize. - How much longer will British tabloid papers keep printing photos of topless ladies?
Doesn’t sound like they’re going to stop anytime soon. Keep it classy, News Corp. (The Sun has been printing their Page 3 Lovelies since 1970.) The Sun’s editor told London’s The Guardian newspaper that topless women are “a good way to sell newspapers.” (And, no, I’m not giving you a link to Page 3. Find it for yourself if you must.)
