Ps today’s news cycle is driven by someone not doing a press conference and posting a tweet instead. — PolitiTweet.org

@jeffbercovici I have no idea what Tom Brady said at a Tampa Bay presser. Certainly consumed a lot of Tom Brady content last year. (Most viewed btw: Brady staggering drunk off the boat parade/Brady drunkenly throwing the Lombardi trophy off the boat) — PolitiTweet.org
Peter Kafka @pkafka
@jeffbercovici They have unlimited visuals. Cutting out a slice of guys talking at a microphone won’t cut into that stock. Also let’s be clear: only a fraction of press conference content ever makes it out of the room, in *any* form. — PolitiTweet.org
Peter Kafka @pkafka
@jeffbercovici But also my point: entertainment talk is thriving genre and *doesnt* need pressers to make it work. Lots of other stuff to blather about. Or this thought exercise: Do you think ESPN’s non-game programming loses a single viewer if pre/post game pressers shrank or stopped? — PolitiTweet.org

@MarionManeker Tournament pays her, no? And hosts the the event and collects the tv $ etc. — PolitiTweet.org
Peter Kafka @pkafka
@Lucas_Shaw Truetrue. And maybe it even accelerates as everyone gets increasingly desperate for eyeballs. But structurally makes no sense and will collapse. Requisite covid reference: promos like E3, Apple launch days work just fine as a single-stream virtual event. — PolitiTweet.org
Peter Kafka @pkafka
@MarionManeker But she is absolutely paid talent. — PolitiTweet.org
Peter Kafka @pkafka
@Lucas_Shaw Sure. But at this point all of that ritual is quite silly too. Jack Black can do avails for a gazillion local outlets to promote Jumanji 7 - or he can do TikTok YouTube etc. Its not like the local outlets he stiffs won’t use the free content he provides anyway. — PolitiTweet.org
Peter Kafka @pkafka
@MarionManeker Of course. That’s why they get fined for not providing the free content. But it’s a weird artifact, certainly doesn’t have to exist in that form - just like athletes can make their own media instead of going through press now. — PolitiTweet.org

(Late night shows, comiccons, tca’s are all rightly seen as promo events. We don’t expect Adele or Vin Diesel to explain their performance etc) — PolitiTweet.org

It’s... a little weird that we expect our sports entertainers to do “press conferences” before or after the actual entertainment they provide? We don’t expect the same from actors, singers etc. — PolitiTweet.org

Fwiw when Disney+ launched it stumbled out of the gate and had to apologize and then did crazy great numbers and no one ever talked about it again. — PolitiTweet.org
Peter Kafka @pkafka
The last time HBO shit the bed during a big streaming moment like this it led them to move the whole tech operation to MLB’s streaming biz. Which is now owned by Disney. This history lesson brought to you by a guy who was waiting for the whole series to finish anyway. — PolitiTweet.org

@WaltFrench @WHCOS @nytimes It will be kept at bay through a combination of vax-taking and non-vax taking. First option better than the second obvs but this is the path we’ve collectively taken.
