If you have any interest in how big media is trying to figure out the future (or work at the new Versant!), we had a great Mixed Signals conversation with CEO Mark Lazarus podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/can…
Listen to my conversation with @ReedAlbergotti here: semafor.com/article/09/26/…
I met @Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol shortly before this week’s announcement of more cuts to stores and head office jobs. Here's how he explains his “Back to Starbucks” plan — and why you might soon find more banana flavours on the $SBUX menu. Via @semafor semafor.com/article/09/26/…
great Semafor podcast ep as usual, and makes me think of how the scaled-up personality-cult media properties (like Crooked Media) are the next things to get bought and bundled up megaphone.link/OENRF6673288691
Enjoyed speaking at @semafor’s Next 3 Billion Summit to underscore the Trump Administration’s approach to Africa: securing peace, deepening partnerships, and driving prosperity across the continent.
" Sports has driven every transformational technology in the media business," Versant CEO Mark Lazarus says. "Roughly 65%" of the NBC cable spin-offs business is "tied to news, sports, and live," he tells @semaforben and @maxwelltani.
As President Trump’s posture toward Venezuela grows increasingly aggressive, his special missions envoy Ric Grenell is striking a far more conciliatory tone — and frustrating some of his colleagues, @ShelbyTalcott reports.
🟡 MSNBC and 10 other television channels, from CNBC to Golf Channel, are splitting from NBC over the next several weeks to form a new digital-focused, publicly traded company called Versant. This week on Mixed Signals, CEO Mark Lazarus joins @semaforben and @maxwelltani about…
Semafor White House correspondent @ShelbyTalcott tells @LelandVittert people close to Donald Trump's administration are “fully banking that there are going to be more indictments" similar to the James Comey indictment announced Thursday. MORE: newsnationnow.com/politics/forme…
.@ShelbyTalcott gets to the bottom of one of the big Trumpworld foreign policy fights 👀

Saying we're going to do more with less gives an excuse to those making aid cuts. We need to do more with more, because we were not doing enough before.

US tariffs are "the biggest disruption in global trade in 80 years," @wto Director-General @NOIweala tells @semaforben. "Yes, the trading system has been knocked, it's been battered, but it is showing very strong resilience at the core."
.@maxwelltani on new pressure on Disney semafor.com/article/09/24/…
Hot take by @ReedAlbergotti for Semafor: > It’s not that the strategy is a sure-fire success. It might not work. But let’s have a real discussion and debate about H-1Bs, rather than trying to force it into the two-dimensional “Trump is bad” narrative. semafor.com/newsletter/09/…
