Netflix?
ReplyDeleteExplains why all the best meme instagrams are posting Avengers and Roma memes today.
DeleteWhat are you talking about?
ReplyDelete'best of list'? 'masquerade as an article'?
🤷♀️Lol no clue I just always say “Netflix”!!!
DeleteGoogle "best Netflix series" and the top stories will return about a dozen articles in the last month ranging from the NYT to Vulture that feature some variation on "The ten best shows on Netflix right now." If these articles were paid for, it would be a tad unethical - if not outright illegal - but I'll let the ambulance chasers weigh in on that.
DeleteTricia, lol!
ReplyDeleteJeff- I'm not a lawyer, but I agree that if it's been paid for, and only speaks of Netflix programs, it should indeed have "paid advertisement" marked as a disclaimer upon it, or be in op-ed pages. Newspapers are totally tanking their credibility if they allow this, bc even if just entertainment programs now, what's to keep other companies from doing it?
The articles on Netflix that I generally see are ‘What’s coming to Netflix this month and what’s leaving’. I find them really helpful (especially if something I’ve been wanting to see is leaving because they give exact dates.)
ReplyDeleteWasn't there an article recently claiming that Netflix now has more original content on its platform than content it's bought from elsewhere?
ReplyDeleteI don’t even care if they pay for articles like those lol it’s how I find new things to watch.

ReplyDeleteKinda like when Enty does paid blinds for some celebrity .. and pretends it is "gossip" from his sources?
In a perfect world maybe ...
Daryl-- sounds like kneepads and their online equivalents are purely PR puppets, but I still, by the tips of my fingers, hold newspapers and real journalists to a higher standard.
ReplyDeleteI think this is Hulu. Just Goolge 'best hulu series' and look at when and where the first pages are from.
ReplyDeletethis is not news, this is how the game works
ReplyDeleteTidal. They have been having issues keeping up with royalty payments since last year and I recently saw an article boas about the company and ppl were lol in the comment section.

ReplyDelete- All the amateur and free content. I do some of this myself. Everybody likes free, but it kicks the legs from under the news business.
- Too many college students majoring in journalism, just like all the arts. Supply and demand.
Netflix is being run by the corrupt obama cabal. What would you expect from them? Honesty and transparecy? Sheesh!
ReplyDeleteNetflix. Shanda Rhimes is show runner based on an article written in New York Mag.
