Apple Sets Its Sights on Hollywood With Plans for Original Content

Apple may be starting out small in the content wars but if history is any indicator they are playing the long-game in being a disruptor in the content development industry. It will be interesting to see how they continue to evolve their business model especially with the potential merger between TimeWarner and AT&T which will marry content creation with distribution given that Apple already has a built in network for distributing their content via the iPhone. http://www.wsj.com/articles/apple-sets-its-sights-on-hollywood-with-plans-for-original-content-1484217007

Billionaire Carlos Slim to Launch TV Channel Exclusively Targeting Mexican Americans

Not one to doubt the business instincts of someone like a Carlos Slim. Still a curious move to launch a network targeting the Mexican American audience. While all census projections show the US Hispanic population continuing to grow almost all also reflect a change in the sub-demographic showing that the percent of US Hispanics that speak Spanish is in decline due to a variety of reasons (e.g: acculturation, slowing number of immigration). That being said the network could potentially follow the route of having more cultural nuances or lead points that would be relevant for US Hispanic audiences while blending the languages between English and Spanish to make it more relevant especially for Millennials. https://www.portada-online.com/2017/01/20/billionaire-carlos-slim-to-launch-tv-channel-exclusively-targeting-mexican-americans/
