Lord of the Rings
„…The Return of the King” revine în cinematografe pe 13 aprilie, la 20 de ani de la debut:
Mi-ar plăcea ca (Revista) Biz să publice mai des astfel de articole, în general despre cam tot ce înseamnă „online” (🫣- vedeți voi cum ajunge ediția de azi în redacția lor).
Golin vs TikTok
Also on my checklist Golin US, care le-a spus clienților săi să se suspende temporar colaborarea cu TikTok:
Golin, a major public relations firm that hires creators on behalf of brand clients, on Friday asked some clients to hold off on signing sponsorship deal agreements related to TikTok campaigns in light of Chew’s hearing and a potential TikTok ban.
În altă ordine idei, TikTok, deținută de familia al cărei membru este al doilea cel mai urmărit content creator la nivel global?
Opinia mea (neprofesională):
What a freaking mess for the 4th most valuable media brand in the world ($67B).
