The latest PwC Media Outlook report forecasts that the South African podcast market will double to 19 million monthly listeners by 2024. Podcasts have proven to be the fastest growing sector of media consumption, enabling the digital migration of media (audio) brands.
This year, African Media Entertainment (AME) is continuing/enhancing its embrace of the digital revolution by securing the South African rights for Wondery podcasts, the worldâs largest independent podcast producer.
In this Reuters Institute’s factsheet we analyse the gender breakdown of top editors in a strategic sample of 240 major online and offline news outlets in 12 different markets across four continents.
Looking at a sample of 10 top online news outlets and 10 top offline news outlets in each of these 12 markets, we find:
Only 22% of the 180 top editors across the 240 brands covered are women, despite the fact that, on average, 40% of journalists in the 12 markets are women. Looking only at the 10 markets we covered in 2020 and again in 2021, 23% of top editors are women, the same percentage as last year.
Looking exclusively at the 178 brands included both this year and last year, the percentage of women among the top editors has changed from 22% in 2020 to 24% in 2021. Among 37 new top editors across these brands, 16% of these are women. (There were 14% women among the outgoing top editors.)
Facebook s move to ban news sites from its platform in Australia was a chilling warning for those who fear the same could happen in Europe.
The social media giant flexed its muscles over a proposed law that would have made it pay for journalistic content shared on its platform.
While the row has now been defused in Australia, it has sparked questions about whether the same scenario could play out on our continent.
It s clear that as in Australia, Europeans get a lot of their news content via social media companies such as Facebook. Hence, such platforms have a strong bargaining position when it comes to any negotiations on paying for content.
