Rupert Murdoch Is Making the Case For Steemit

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

I read an article today that I found fascinating! Rupert Murdoch, owner of Fox News, Wall Street Journal, and the New York Post wants to make Facebook pay news outlets for hosting thier content. He questions why they should be able to collect ad revenue sharing content created on their news platforms. Sounds like someone should create a social media sites where the content creators are rewarded by other users for the contributions to the platform :)

Interesting. The hay days of Facebook are deflating.

This article is very interesting. Mark Z also talked about implementing cryptocurrency into Facebook. I think they are coming to the realization this will be the future. Reward people for their time, but I don't think anyone will be able to do it like steemit because all other social medias have such an expensive ecosystem to maintain and won't be able to offer the rewards steemit can

I agree that Facebook will have to look at implementing some sort of reward. Dtube is already starting to pull youtube users away. Steem has the leg up being first to the market space. I promote it when I can and hope for its continued growth!
