Media and Publications Digest

The media and publications landscape is seeing a variety of developments, from streaming service collaborations to shifts in content consumption. Disney+ has entered into a content deal with Gary Neville's "The Overlap" to bolster its podcast offerings, directly competing with Netflix's recent foray into football podcasts. Meanwhile, Viu and Truevisions Now are launching a regional content collaboration to bring Thai series to a wider Southeast Asian audience.

In broadcast news, CBS News is expanding into live events through a partnership between its "Sunday Morning" program and the 92nd Street Y, which will feature live interviews and programming streamed across both platforms. The unscripted television genre is also gaining recognition, with Bravo and Peacock's Frances Berwick noting that unscripted content is finally being viewed as premium. In other news, "Sports Illustrated" has seen significant changes amidst a new sports media venture, and there's an ongoing discussion about alternative methods for consuming news, such as turning RSS feeds into e-ink newspapers to reduce phone usage.
