Yahoo Finance VideoApple and Disney, a match made in streaming heaven: Analyst
Apple (AAPL) could make big moves in the streaming space with a purchase of The Walt Disney Company (DIS) says Laura Martin, Needham & Co. Senior Media & Internet Analyst. Martin joined Rachelle Akuffo on Yahoo Finance live to talk Warner Bros. Discovery (WAB) earnings, which showed the company's streaming platforms will turn a profit a year earlier than expected. Still, Warner Bros. Discovery faces challenges with "a broken film content creation engine" that's been on a "cold spell" for the past five years, says Martin. Apple is a strong distribution platform, and would stand to benefit from buying a "successful and healthy film studio." Enter: Disney. If they combined, Apple (AAPL) and Disney (DIS) would stand to benefit from "a lot of synergies" between Apple's strong distribution network of iPhones and Disney's powerhouse content, says Martin. But hope is not lost for Warner Bros. Discovery. The company has a "big library" of names, with plans to launch another Superman movie to bolster the D.C. Comic brand. Martin says she expects Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) to look to Paramount (PARA) as a potential acquisition opportunity, given Paramount's recent sliding stock. Martin says Warner Bros. Discovery is "just managing the same company" as Paramount, but better. In her full interview, Martin dives deeper into Warner Bros. Discovery earnings with Rachelle Akuffo.

Yahoo Finance VideoVice made promises it couldn't keep: Media Reporter
Vice, the media company once valued at $5.7 billion dollars, might be headed for bankruptcy, according to multiple reports. The company once vowed to be a disruptor to the media industry, but could not figure out a way to turn a profit. Washington Post media reporter Elahe Izadi says digital media organizations made the following claims early on, "We are the future of media. We can attract millennials, younger audiences, newspapers are dying, print is dying, and this is really the future and they sold this promise, and as we can see, they couldn't grow fast enough to make up for those promises, especially when we're now in an economic environment where the advertising industry and the and the advertising revenue has dropped off." Its potential downfall underscores the tough environment facing digital media companies as they struggle to cut spending during economic uncertainty. "When we're talking digital media... during the pandemic and especially at the start, we actually saw audience spike, there was a lot of online interest, reader interest saw a lot of that happening, but that didn't necessarily mean an increase in revenues," Elahe Izadi said. In an interview with Yahoo Finance's Rachelle Akuffo, Izadi also says that in the case of companies relying on other companies like those who rely on Google (GOOGL) and Meta Platforms (META), their businesses can also be susceptible to disruptions from something like a changed algorithm.

Yahoo Finance VideoHollywood writers strike: Here's what it could mean for your favorite shows
Hollywood is on the brink of its first writers strike in 15 years, but this time it's not a rerun of 2007. The Writers Guild of America (WGA) has voted to authorize a strike if a deal with major studios is not reached by May 1st. If a strike does occur, it will cause a full production shutdown, affecting actors, stage crew, studio teams, and the biggest companies in Hollywood, as scripted series across both network TV and streaming grind to a halt. Many in Hollywood have weighed in on the potential strike, with Netflix (NFLX) executives directly addressing it during the company's Q1 2023 earnings call. Netflix said it has a long and robust slate of content just in case there is a strike, but executives reiterated they're at the table and want to find a solution.
