I don’t think an Oscar sells more phones or tablets but can’t fault Apple for trying. https://t.co/vWU1EHf6bt — PolitiTweet.org

.@JuddApatow spent the pandemic making a movie about making a movie in the pandemic. We talked about The Bubble, coming to terms with streaming, Twitter and TikTok. Plus: Some Slap Discourse. https://t.co/4soBayT7pv https://t.co/5tsVo0tICh — PolitiTweet.org

@SteveBattaglio Totally. I did! But I think us Twitter types in particular overestimate the number of people who are really plugged into Twitter. — PolitiTweet.org

Fwiw I don’t think distribution will be the key obstacle for CNN+, which will have fine programming including something I worked on. Biggest issue is that it’s not CNN, because it can’t be CNN. https://t.co/ntGZsmhS7q — PolitiTweet.org

CNN+ launches tomorrow on Apple, Amazon and Android devices - but not Roku, a huge player in connected TVs. A reminder that streaming TV still requires deals with distributors, just like TV in the olden days. — PolitiTweet.org

Fwiw: Twitter spent a bunch of time years ago trying to convince TV people that Twitter could boost ratings. Never could prove it. Is it possible that a statistically significant number of people saw The Slap on Twitter and then tuned in? Yes. But unlikely. — PolitiTweet.org
