Facebook forbyder hvid nationalisme og separatisme
After a civil rights backlash, Facebook will now treat white nationalism and separatism the same as white supremacy, and will direct users who try to post that content to a nonprofit that helps people leave hate groups.

DR Nyheder runder 100.000 følgere på Instagram
– Indtil i sommer var Instagram ikke rigtig en fast del af den måde, vi dækkede nyheder på. Men så tog vi fat på det hen over sommeren og har nu en klar målsætning om, at vi skal have mindst ét opslag på Instagram om dagen, og det skal laves på platformens præmisser, fortæller [Néte Gerlach, der er redaktør for sociale medier i DR Nyheder Digital].

? TENDENSER
Her kan du læse nogle af ugens tendenser indenfor medier. Det kan være en ny metode eller tilgang, branchen forsøger at tage til sig.
Apple præsenterede News+
En af de helt store historier i medieverden i ugens løb var naturligvis Apples indholdsplatform, News+. Derfor får du her en række artikler, der samler op på præsentationen samt nogle af reaktionerne og analyserne.
Apple has just revealed its new Apple News Plus service, which adds magazines to the Apple News app. The emphasis is on curation, high quality, and trust, all of which Apple considers essential for a news and magazine consumption app. There will be over 300 magazines, such as The New Yorker, Esquire, The Atlantic, National Geographic, Men’s Health, and Vogue, and Apple News Plus will be “the only place” where you’ll be able to get all of them at once.

Det er værd at bemærke, at skønt en avis som The Wall Street Journal er med, så er det ikke med deres kerneindhold. I stedet er det med et kurateret produkt samt nye stofområder, som man vil hyre op til 50 journalister ind til at dække:
The publisher will hire about 50 more journalists to write articles, some of which could run exclusively on Apple’s service, Lewis said. They’ll focus on nonfinancial beats, like sports, politics, culture and lifestyle. The Journal will likely expand its sports coverage specifically for the service and hire more political reporters, he said.
That’s a much bigger bet than I would make — but Rupert Murdoch has historically been more successful in creating media businesses than I have. (On the other hand, one of those was The Daily, an iPad-exclusive publication that died a quick deathwhen not enough people subscribed to it.)
The Wall Street Journal har flere årsager til at være på Apple News+:
But, aside from using the platform as an acquisition tool, certain ad units on Apple News were performing better than on the Journal’s own site, according to Josh Stinchcomb, global chief revenue officer, media sales for Dow Jones.

En del aviser og nyhedsmedier brillerer dog ved deres fravær på News+. Inden lanceringen skrev Digiday:
Those terms, plus the fact that Apple will control the customer relationship and most of the data about who is reading what content, have been enough to turn off several publishers, including The New York Times and the Washington Post.
“For publishers who were making a premium on subscriptions — and deservedly so — to opt in on a potential for incremental revenue is missing what made them valuable in the first place,” said Keith Hernandez, former publishing executive and founder of consultancy Launch Angle.
↓
Forinden havde The New York Times’ administrerende direktør ligefrem advaret mod, at man som udgiver bliver for afhængig af tredjepart, altså Apple i dette tilfælde:
“We tend to be quite leery about the idea of almost habituating people to find our journalism somewhere else,” he told Reuters in an interview on Thursday. “We’re also generically worried about our journalism being scrambled in a kind of Magimix (blender) with everyone else’s journalism.”
↓
Der er dog heller ikke den store interesse fra danske medier, umiddelbart, skriver Journalisten:
”Hvis Apple bliver succesfuld med Apple News+, så er det et eksempel på, at vi som medier lægger vores indhold i hænderne på en anden kanal, som skal stå for distributionen og prioriteringen af vores indhold,” siger Jørn Broch.
↓
For dem, der ventede, at Apple ville revolutionere nyheder digitalt, var News+ en fæl skuffelse:
Apple News Plus is a fine way to read magazines, but a disappointment to anyone wishing for a real boost for the news business
Men måske har News+ et andet værditilbud end leverandører af indhold?
The more interesting part of yesterday’s event, Nail says, is Apple’s implicit message. “They’re saying, ‘We’re on your side, we’re going to protect you.’ But the tradeoff is, ‘You have to live in our ecosystem and pay the prices we charge.’” In the age of Facebook and Google, Nail says, that’s a proposition that consumers may find compelling.
“Digital publishers see Apple News+ as a testbed, not savior” skriver Digiday:
Vox, for example, will use Apple News+ to test a kind of windowing strategy, where the handful of pieces it publishes there every week, via a product called the Highlight, will be available exclusively on Apple News+ for a week before they are released widely.
↓
Jeg samler op, analyserer og perspektiverer i et blogindlæg hos Journalisten:
For nu ligner Apple News+ dog mest af alt en digital magasinkiosk uden den puls og frekvens, vi kender fra nyhedsmedier. Det er ikke nødvendigvis en dårlig ting, men det er noget andet, end hvad mange forventede. Fordi det trods alt er Apple, og fordi mange er trætte af at skulle have fem abonnementer, hvis de vil læse artikler fra fem netaviser.
Det bliver dog ikke News+, der løser dette problem. Ikke i første bølge, i hvert fald.
I min analyse lægger jeg vægt på, at Apple News+ faktisk slet ikke handler ret meget om nyheder lige nu. I stedet handler det rigtig meget om magasiner, hvilket The Verge også har skrevet om.

With Apple News+, will publishers get what they bargained for?
Ekstra Bladet vil bruge robotter i fodbolddækningen
Nu skal robotter skrive om fodboldkampe, som de levende sportsreportere på Ekstra Bladet ikke har tid til. I næste fase får reporterne egne robotter, som kan oplæres i din stil og tone. ”Potentialet er legio,” siger adm. redaktør. Det bliver afgørende, om journalisterne ser det som en hjælp

Google lancerer live-data-tool til journalister
As the name implies, RCI is focused on telling publishers what’s happening on their site at this moment, and on helping them identify trending news stories that could attract more readers. The initial NCI data is more useful for the publisher’s business or audience development teams, Harding said. RCI is designed “to help the editorial side of our partners understand the dynamics of content on their site — what’s trending, what’s falling off, what’s getting traction.”
EU vedtager omdiskuteret copyright-lov
The European Parliament voted by 438 to 226 to pass the law, which aims to compensate artists and creators. Critics, however, claim it will have a chilling effect on a free and open internet. The crucial points are two sections of the directive: Article 11 and 13, dubbed the hyperlink tax and the upload filter, respectively.
EUs medlemslande har nu to år til at få vedtaget lovgivningen.

Circa lukker helt ned
Det startede som en innovativ app, hvor historier blev brudt ned til noget nær atomer. Siden har Circa skiftet karakter – og nu lukker det for good.
From an innovative startup to a Sean Hannity segment supplier to a generic millennial news site, Circa seems to have finally run out of lives.

Google vil skabe lokalmedier
Google is launching the Local Experiments Project, an effort to fund dozens of new local news websites around the country and eventually around the world. The tech giant says it will have no editorial control over the sites, which will be built by partners it selects with local news expertise.
Mediums historie, fra 2012 til nu
Medium is nearly seven years old. It’s raised $132 million in venture funding, and it is not profitable. It has undergone countless pivots. When I saw that new search for “partners” last week, I started trying to count how many — and then ended up documenting the history of Medium via articles and tweets and Ev Williams statements.

NYTimes-værktøj kan gennemgå 900 sider på 10 minutter
DocumentHelper isn’t a particularly unique tool. Its power comes from tailoring it to The Times’s vocabulary and work flow. It uses technologies well known to people who digitize documents, namely optical character recognition, which is commonly abbreviated as OCR. Like journalists, legal professionals rely on OCR to help manage huge sets of documents. Likewise, archivists and libraries use specialized scanning rigs to digitize their collections of text materials.
