In this edition of our podcast “Die Medien-Woche” the media scientist and publicist Stephan Weichert is a guest. We talk about the ongoing guesswork about the future of the magazines from the Gruner Jahr publishing house, which has been part of the RTL media group for a year. What are the consequences of the partial sale for the Hamburg media location – and is the strategy of the parent company Bertelsmann primarily an anticipation of industry-wide recruitment and sales of titles?
We also talk about the hype topic of generative artificial intelligence and specific opportunities and risks for journalism. Do journalists have to be afraid or can they look forward to computer-aided help with their work? Is the hype hysterical – or all too justified?
Finally, we look at newly founded local journalistic start-ups – offers such as “Karla” from Konstanz or “Rums” from Münster, which want to give local journalism new impetus with alternative offers. But how well are these offers financed – and what are their chances of success?
