X expands Gametime sports hub beyond NFL with MLB
X has announced the expansion of its 'Gametime' feature, a sports hub previously focused on the NFL, to include Major League Baseball (MLB). The new MLB experience, launching this month, will offer baseball fans postseason coverage, scores, stats, and real-time discussions. This move is part of X's strategy to attract advertisers by capitalizing on engaged sports audiences. The company plans to add more leagues, including the NBA, to make Gametime a year-round destination. The announcement comes after X's settlement with the World Federation of Advertisers (WFA) over an alleged boycott, as X seeks to rebuild relationships with brands.
NHL Centralizes Local Broadcasts; NBA Returns to Free TV
This article analyzes how professional sports leagues are restructuring their local media strategies in the wake of declining regional sports networks (RSNs). The NHL is centralizing production for teams like the Blue Jackets, Blues, Wild, and Hurricanes, following MLB's model, while allowing team-specific distribution flexibility. The NBA is temporarily returning to over-the-air television, with the Bucks and Hawks partnering with local broadcasters. The piece argues a hybrid model, balancing central production with local market flexibility, is the most effective approach in the post-cable era.
Zoom's Marketing Rebuild: Beyond Pandemic Fame
At AdExchanger's Programmatic IO, Zoom's VP of brand and content, Josh Reed, discussed the company's marketing overhaul. Despite 99% unaided brand awareness, Zoom is pigeonholed as a video call app. Reed highlighted the 'iceberg' problem: being known for one thing while other products like contact center, events platform, VoIP, and AI tools remain invisible. Under CMO Kim Storin, Zoom consolidated marketing functions, expanded into linear TV, creator partnerships, and affiliate marketing. They launched the Solopreneur 50 program and are experimenting with commission-based creator models. Measurement is shifting from last-touch to multi-touch attribution using Snowflake as a data spine. Zoom is also adapting to the 'dark funnel', where B2B research starts in LLMs and AI chatbots, requiring a new approach to meet buyers where they are.
