Are News Roundup Podcasts The New Morning Shows? Steve Goldstein Looks At Radio's Latest Competitor

Competition

STEVE GOLDSTEIN's latest "Blogstein" post at his AMPLIFI MEDIA website looks at the rapid growth in short-form morning briefing podcasts and how they are becoming "the new morning shows."

The post highlights how THE NEW YORK TIMES' "THE DAILY" and NPR's "UP FIRST," brief news roundups fed as podcasts, have been joined by BUZZFEED's "REPORTING TO YOU," which is designed for use on "smart speakers" like AMAZON Echo, and NBC's news update for SNAPCHAT.
