More On News Corp, CBS, Viacom Mobile Deals

By Staci D. Kramer - Mon 27 Feb 2006 08:03 PM PST

The NYT headlines did what News Corp.  and CBS hoped for, launching a wave of coverage of mobile deals that might otherwise slide right past most consumer media.Marketplace’s Lisa Napoli called to ask what the fuss was about. ...  the result is a quick, lucid listen (no thanks from me) about why major media companies are mobile-minded. My take: News Corp.’s Mobizzo is not sliced bread, as I told her, but it’s a pragmatic move for a company seeking to control more of their mobile destiny. The CBS video alerts are more innovative but incremental, not a stand-alone business.  You can listen here with Real.
