Sam talks with Martin Bryant about the future of journalism and podcasting

Sam Talks with Martin Bryant about the future of journalism and podcasting This week I got the chance to speak with Martin Bryant the former editor of The Next Web. Martin is the founder of Big Revolution a media consultancy. He also writes a wonderful must-read daily newsletter and has recently started his own podcast. In this podcast, Martin and I discussed the future of journalism and podcasting. Paywalls, subscriptions, libra payments and fakenews. It's clear more and more newspapers are moving to paywalls to replace their dwindling ad-revenue. Is the freemium model dead? Will bloggers and podcasters follow suit as they look to monetise their content. We also discussed the recent launch of Facebook News. Having failed with Instant Articles before, will Facebook News succeed or be just another tab on Facebook wall that no one reads. Facebook News joins a growing band of news aggregation portals recently launched including Apple News+ and Amazon News on their FireTV. We also discussed the challenge of fake news and if there was anyway to prevent it.
