ABSTRACT In the literature, anti-rivalry has been proposed to describe goods that become more valuable when used. Empirical testing of this theory is lacking, and the concept has not yet been applied in the context of news. This study identifies five distinctive value constructs – news value, emotional value, value of reading comments, social value of commenting and social value of sharing – from the statistical analysis of a survey of 2020 online news consumers on Finnish public broadcaster Yle’s website. We then assess changes in these values when the news is consumed and users have contributed to it by commenting on it and sharing it. The results of the analysis and additional in-depth user interviews indicate that news possesses elements of anti-rivalry. Additionally, the results indicate interesting intercorrelations among the values and user groups. When a piece of news has high news value, user contributions do not play a major role, but the value of sharing increases. When a news product is commented on, the act increases the social value of sharing for sharers, decreases the news value for readers and increases the negative emotions felt by readers.

ABSTRACT This article combines two prominent discussions in media studies and industry: the challenged economic situation for independent community news and the complex relationship with digital platforms. Through empirical data, it assesses current incomes and the impact of platform companies on management practices in the UK. It finds that building your social media following, particularly on Twitter, correlates to higher income. Independent community media also report utility benefit from digital platforms for audience growth, the provision of analytics and story suggestions. Direct returns economically from advertising are less forthcoming and publishers feel subjugated by policymaker and platform opacity. Through a mixed method approach, we conclude social media practices can have positive indirect impact on the news revenue model, but absent direct returns mean management frustrations persist

ABSTRACT Unlike the situation in the past, media firms have found themselves in the midst of challenge to withstand pressure resulting from social media’s entry in the journalism business. This study assessed the Tanzania’s media firms’ preparedness and coping strategies in the emergence of social media. A five-point Likert scale questionnaire was answered by 106 respondents from selected media firms in Dar es Salaam, namely: Independent Television (ITV), Tanzania Broadcasting Corporation (TBC), TBC Fm, Clouds Fm, Mwananchi Newspaper, Tanzania Standard Newspaper, and Uhuru newspaper. A descriptive and multiple regression analysis was used. Findings indicate convergence and partnering of traditional media with social media positively and significantly influencing media firms’ competitiveness in the era of social media in Tanzania. The majority of respondents practiced some form of convergence and partnering for lowering operational costs, more profit generation, and differentiation of what they offer. The study concluded that social media is a necessary complement to media firms that may enhance their competitiveness. Appropriate policies and regulations need to be in place to ensure successive incorporation for good journalism and informed societies.

ABSTRACT This study offers insights into two critical decisions in jingle-based advertising. How much more could the producer pay to buy the rights to popular music to add to advertising jingles? And how much more could they pay a popular performer to sing the jingle? Will doing so enhance the brand or message recall to justify the investment? Based on 300 interviews that measured unaided and aided day-after recall of five jingle ads concurrently aired on television, popular music and performers increased unaided and aided recall of brand name and ad message. Compared to the base case, a popular performer can increase the brand and message recall by two-and-half folds, and a popular performer and popular music can increase the brand and message recall by six-folds compared to the base case.

ABSTRACT The Greek television industry is facing the new challenges of the streaming era while still recovering from a decade-long debt crisis (2009–2019) that has been the focus of public attention both within the EU and beyond. This study, following the “critical media industry studies” research approach, aims to synthesise the state of knowledge of the sector in the aftermath of this crisis period by combining disparate academic approaches and examining the ways in which decision makers responded to economic and regulatory shifts; thus providing an overview of the Greek television industry that contributes to the theoretical development of the field and also has practical implications for media practitioners and policy makers.
