“The potential decline of PBS raises serious concerns about the future of a vital component of American media culture. Research indicates that public broadcasting in the US plays a crucial role in enriching the nation's media landscape by offering a broader spectrum of information, educational content, cultural experiences, and platforms for political discourse 1. This perspective is supported by seminal works in the field that have long recognized the importance of public media for a well-informed citizenry. However, the historical development of media in the US has predominantly favored private ownership and commercial interests, resulting in a public broadcasting system that has often been comparatively weaker than its counterparts in other industrialized nations 1. In many advanced societies, broadcasting is primarily viewed as a cultural institution deeply intertwined with language, symbols, social identity, and cultural expression, a perspective that has historically held less prominence in the US, where media has largely been treated as a business.”

“If it’s nearing the end of Q1 then it must be time for my annual reset and, as has become tradition, I’m tapping away on my terrace at the Buchinger Wilhelmi above Marbella. It’s day seven of a nine-day regime that involves 800 cals a day, 10-15km walks, pilates, physio, acupuncture (truly world-class), medical check-ups and daily weigh-ins. According to the latest reading as of 09.27 this morning, I’m on track to be 5kg lighter by the time I fly up to Paris on Tuesday.”

“Nic Monisse's opening opinion piece in the newsletter, "Mixing it up," immediately draws attention to the critical role of interdisciplinary collaboration in fostering design innovation. Monisse recounts his early exposure to this concept during his time at design school, citing the example of Ideo, a San Francisco-based company renowned for its pioneering designs, including the Palm V personal computer [Monocle Newsletter]. Despite the widespread recognition of Ideo's designs, Monisse notes that he hadn't deeply considered the studio's approach until a pivotal moment involving a television and an ABC's Nightline segment [Monocle Newsletter]. This 20-minute package, featuring journalist Jack Smith, provided an insightful look into Ideo's creative process as they tackled the redesign of a common object: the shopping cart [Monocle Newsletter]. The process involved a diverse team comprising a linguist, a marketing expert, a biologist, and a psychologist, a stark contrast to Monisse's fellow landscape-architecture students [Monocle Newsletter]. This experience served as his initial introduction to the profound importance of cross-pollination in design, a principle he has actively pursued throughout his career as a designer and now as an editor [Monocle Newsletter].”

“Don’t try asking Ai Weiwei about his net worth. The 67-year-old is one of the most sought-after artists in the world, but he doesn’t know how much he has in his bank account. Nor does he care.

“My father (the poet Ai Qing) made a living selling words. And I never heard him say ‘money.’ It doesn’t matter how much I have. [Rather, what matters is] what I use it for. I reinvest almost all of it in my projects. I don’t have my own car, I don’t go to expensive restaurants, I hardly have a social life. I only need what my father needed: a pencil and a piece of paper. Those are my most precious possessions. And time. And a good chat with family and friends. Everything else is useless.””

“The Semafor Business newsletter commences by addressing a persistent paradox in the realm of business: the quarterly report card system for CEOs, which evaluates their progress in preparing companies for a distant future. This practice often leads to a conflict between CEOs who lament the "short-termism" of shareholders focused on immediate profits, potentially at the expense of long-term vision, and shareholders who criticize the "long-termism" of CEOs, fearing the wasteful expenditure of resources on uncertain future prospects. This inherent conflict creates a "temporal trap," a challenge for business leaders to navigate the pressures of the present while striving for future success.

Academic research provides a robust framework for understanding this phenomenon of short-termism in business. Corporate short-termism is generally defined as a managerial inclination towards prioritizing immediate benefits, which can ultimately undermine a company's long-term interests and sustainability. This preference is often intensified by capital market pressures that push for the maximization of shareholder value in the short run, raising concerns that this immediate focus can detract from crucial long-term investments and overall corporate health”

“On its face, the expansion was a big, ambitious project, and exactly the kind of thing Michigan — and the U.S. economy — needed. The facility would bring an estimated 2,350 jobs and $2.3 billion of investment to a small college town called Big Rapids. Gotion would pay future workers in this semi-rural community some $62,000 a year, more than 50% higher than the local median household income. And a new plant would be aligned with the revival of U.S. manufacturing — a goal espoused by both Democrat and Republican politicians.”
