When it comes to spotting what’s next in global journalism, Nic Newman is hard to beat. As lead author of the Reuters Digital News Report, based on the voices of tens of thousands of news consumers worldwide, he knows exactly how audiences are changing, why they’re avoiding the news, and what that means for publishers navigating AI, platforms, and shifting habits. At the b° future festival, Nic will be in a fireside chat with Astrid Maier, Deputy Editor‑in‑Chief of the German Press Agency (dpa). Together, they explore: How social media and video platforms are reshaping news discovery, why younger audiences are harder to reach than ever, and why, in Nic’s words, “there is no silver bullet” for the challenges ahead. This session will be automatically translated in real time and can be followed in the room on monitors in both German and English. Diese Session wird automatisch in Echtzeit übersetzt und kann im Saal auf Monitoren auf Deutsch und Englisch mitverfolgt werden.
