@BillSimmons @eldsjal don't have a price yet. Last year Simmons talked to WarnerMedia's Turner about a ~$100mm deal, but those talks didn't go anywhere. Shortly after, Spotify kicked off its podcast buying binge. — PolitiTweet.org

Wait. They wanted Iowa election volunteers to sideload an app? There's *zero* chance that would work. The app could be flawless and the whole thing would still fail. https://t.co/MunZ7oWRWf — PolitiTweet.org

Yes, Google and Facebook hoover up all the digital ad $s. But YouTube kicks back at least $7.5 billion a year to people who make media (or own media). Which is one reason you don't hear media execs yelling at YouTube these days. — PolitiTweet.org

YouTube makes $15 billion a year from ads — and pays more than half of that to video makers https://t.co/yIeifNpBLy
