Based on a literature review, the authors develop propositions about the influence of actor engagement on three elements of a company’s business model: value proposition, creation, and capture. The engagement of actors makes it possible for companies to gain access to certain resources, which fosters the development of new or the improvement of existing offerings, resources, activities, revenue models, etc. In a qualitative case study, the authors examine the business model of Blizzard Entertainment, Inc., a global developer of video game content, with a focus on the online video game service World of Warcraft. The results show that actor engagement led to several modifications in the company’s business model, affecting the three business model elements, and is thus considered a relevant driver of changes in a video game developer’s business model. This study contributes to the literature as it clarifies the meaning and relevance of actor engagement in media management. In addition, it offers practical insights into actor engagement and its business consequences.","PeriodicalId":45531,"journal":{"name":"JMM-International Journal on Media Management","volume":"39 4 1","pages":"204 - 237"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2021-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73127186","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet a gap in the research exists regarding newsroom organizational leaders and the impact of trauma on their work and emotional health. This study used a grounded theory approach to learn how newsroom leaders experience trauma and how they learn from events such as disasters and terror attacks to translate that knowledge into the work of management. The study also analyzes peer-reviewed research on journalism, trauma, and PTSD to understand how the newsroom organizational leaders in the study can contribute and amplify the recommended trauma responses for newsroom leaders. The data reveal that news organizational leaders can experience symptoms of PTSD and other negative emotional impacts and that news organizational leaders experience an emotional double bind, where staff is encouraged to openly show emotion and be supported, but the organizational leaders believe they will be perceived as weak if they show emotion. Findings from the study are valuable, because they lead to practical guidelines regarding counseling, supervisor support, and training and extend our understanding of how trauma can impact the entire newsroom ecosystem.","PeriodicalId":45531,"journal":{"name":"JMM-International Journal on Media Management","volume":"31 1","pages":"238 - 263"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2021-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77262979","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the particular case of the broadcasting business, this potential threat combines with the drastic changes brought by the advent of digital platforms and on-line contents, setting a new scenario of uncertainty. The traditional engagement of the audience and the TVs and society relationship is at stake, and the 70 years old business model we know may be coming to an end. Indeed, the TV business has already evolved to be more economically resilient. The lessons learnt with the past crisis in 2008–2011, were harsh for all and fatal for some. The case for regional broadcasting appears to be especially interesting to study since it gathers two different managerial approaches, public (classic) and private (outsourced), with their corresponding views and actions to endure the crisis. Even though the whole sector was strongly hit by the crisis, the management model adopted by the companies had a notable influence in how they reacted to the crisis, and how they found themselves in the aftermath, bringing precious information on how to confront the incoming COVID-19 crisis. This paper looks to extract the lessons learnt by Spanish regional TVs managing finance and credibility, in order to determine which strategy could be the most advisable to adopt in face of the coming challenges for the sector from both the managerial and stakeholders’ perspective. The paper results show how the management model adopted and the subsequent financial decisions and communication strategy, together with the level of transparency are key elements to become more resilient and be ready to tackle the future scenario of broadcasting.","PeriodicalId":45531,"journal":{"name":"JMM-International Journal on Media Management","volume":"31 1","pages":"58 - 90"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2021-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81815055","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the last five years, new technologies have disrupted this space and supported the exponential growth of digital advertising. Creative content may be distributed via internet-connected devices, such as desktop, mobile, or connected TV. Advertisers must understand the benefits and risks of each channel to best allocate their marketing budgets and drive both growth and cost savings. Tech and data-driven digital advertising promises many benefits to advertisers, ranging from precision targeting and measurable results to automation and real-time optimization. At the same time, advertisers face major challenges from a host of actors in the media ecosystem that often have misaligned incentives. Several studies have investigated how digital advertising activities affect business results in order to understand their positive and negative impacts. Very few studies, however, have focused on risk management in relation to digital advertising. In this article, we aim to fill this gap. Specifically, we identify the main risks in the paid distribution of digital advertising and the corresponding mitigation strategies. We examined digital advertising from the advertisers’ media management perspective. Interestingly, we found that risks and corresponding mitigation strategies can be clustered in specific groups that can help chief marketing officers and media executives drive the right actions.","PeriodicalId":45531,"journal":{"name":"JMM-International Journal on Media Management","volume":"76 1","pages":"29 - 57"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2021-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87023341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In many democratic contexts, media practitioners have responded to these public pressures by instituting a raft of quality control measures aimed at gaining public support and forestalling government interference. This article makes a contribution to these discussions by presenting the results of an investigation of the internally instituted management practices aimed at enhancing media accountability at two newsrooms in Kenya. The study involved semi-structured interviews with purposively selected media managers and journalists and a review of internal documents, which were then analyzed thematically. The results point to weak management systems of the instituted media accountability practices. Consequently, there are perceptions among journalists and media managers that the existing management practices and structures are not sufficient in achieving the level of accountability desirable in a liberal media environment such as Kenya.","PeriodicalId":45531,"journal":{"name":"JMM-International Journal on Media Management","volume":"33 1","pages":"134 - 143"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75088226","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Narrative media brands involve a continuing fictional narrative such as the Pokémon brand chosen for this research. The context was Reddit comments posted about three trailers for the ‘I Choose You’ movie before its 2017 release to celebrate 20 years of the franchise. 574 Reddit posts were downloaded and analyzed using Leximancer software and an adaptation of netnography. It was found that changes that respected the audiences’ parasocial relationships with the characters, as well as their perceptions of the brand’s heritage, were acceptable. However, changes that audiences believed would threaten and undermine these relationships and the brand’s heritage were not. This is presented in a pyramid hierarchy to conceptualize and categorize the level of change deemed acceptable by audiences. This research extends media branding research beyond seminal concepts by applying the concepts of brand nostalgia and brand heritage to a narrative media brand. The hierarchy has practical applications for the writers, producers, and brand managers of narrative media brands.","PeriodicalId":45531,"journal":{"name":"JMM-International Journal on Media Management","volume":"13 1","pages":"191 - 209"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81632020","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
