InevitableSwing [none/use name]@hexbear.net to Chapotraphouse@hexbear.netEnglish · 2 days ago

MSNBC's website is now ms.now. They don't own msnow.com though. That's a mostly empty page that mentions "motorized snow vehicles".

      Are you not enthusiastic that MS NOW is home to leading programs across all dayparts?

      MS NOW is home to leading programs across all dayparts…

      I thought it was a garbled text. I googled. It always makes me laugh when marketing people, etc are so deeply wired into their own world they forget the average person has no idea what they are talking about…

      In broadcast programming, dayparting is the practice of dividing the broadcast day into several parts, in which a different type of radio programming or television show appropriate for that time period is aired. Television programs are most often geared toward a particular demography, and what the target audience typically engages in at that time.

        reminds me of the “the solve for this is” marketing bullshit. Man the dinguses in marketing hate when you correct their bad grammar and ask if they mean “solution”?

    Jokes aside, my immediate impression is that it’s becoming more ‘patriotic’ and politely fascist

    Look at that logo lmao

    LOL I love that they are trying to keep the MS in the name, when that has its roots in its initial partnership with Microsoft. I’m not sure what the point is even keeping it at this point, since NBC is the more recognizable of the two parts of that name. I wish I could have seen the focus groups they went through to come up with such an awful new brand name.

      The MS actually did stand for Microsoft. MSNBC was formed in 1996 as a collaboration between Microsoft and NBC.

    My take is this is gonna fail and liberals are gonna hate when they rebrand and become fox news 2 and liberals will turn away from mainstream news and more towards social media, which is even more left wing.

    I don’t even think most people get their news from news sites or tv anymore and this is just gonna alienate what remains of their viewerbase

      Social media is not left wing, the algorithms will show you exactly what you want to see and sometimes try to steer you to the right.

        Sometimes? More like always. In my experience, the average person has chud talking points programmed into them, especially when it comes to trans issues.

        It’s gonna steer them to pod jons and tiktok democrats who are, despite still being liberal, are more left wing than MSNBC. They aren’t socialists but it’s only gonna cause more unhappiness with the dnc

      I don’t even think most people get their news from news sites or tv anymore

      Last year - the average MSNBC viewer was 70. WSJ from last year - emphasis mine.

      Among cable channels, the median age for TNT and Bravo viewers is 56, for HGTV it is 66, and even the once-youthful MTV’s median-age viewer is 51, according to Nielsen data. The cable news audience is even older, with MSNBC’s median age at 70, Fox News’s at 69 and CNN’s, 67. Among broadcasters, CBS’s median age is 64 and ABC’s is 66.
