Is the Influencer Economy Beginning to Crack? (436)

Has the content creator/influencer business model gone bearish? Glamour seems to think so. We disagree.

The Paramount/Skydance deal is finally done...we think.

Spotify is beginning to court more video podcasts. Is it working in their fight against YouTube?

And BusinessWeek has a 120-page print issue on the way. Does this mean a new opportunity in print?

Wins and losses include ArtBotAI and Mohawk Chevy. Rants and raves include Trump speaking at the Bitcoin Conference and AI spammers.
