Olivia Nuzzi, Newsroom AI
|
Welcome to The Addition, where I cover the crossover between culture, media and sport. Former star reporter Oliva Nuzzi is officially out at New York magazine. Her fall from grace followed the revelation that she had a personal, digital, relationship with former subject and presidential wannabe RFK Jr. In an update to readers, the magazine said: Last month, the magazine enlisted the law firm Davis Wright Tremaine to review Olivia Nuzzi’s work during the 2024 campaign. They reached the same conclusion as the magazine’s initial internal review of her published work, finding no inaccuracies nor evidence of bias. Nevertheless, the magazine and Nuzzi agreed that the best course forward is to part ways. Nuzzi is a uniquely talented writer and we have been proud to publish her work over her nearly eight years as our Washington Correspondent. We wish her the best. This puts a rather nice gloss on things... AI Can't Solve Media's ProblemsYou can’t turn on a media podcast, read a media newsletter or attend a media event without everyone talking about AI. So... I’m about to do the same! Let’s get the throat clearing out of the way first. AI is clearly going to have a huge impact on news and the rest of the media. It is already doing so, albeit not always successfully - take the morale-sapping effect I reported it's had at Reach, for instance. However, I’m no luddite. This technology has good uses already and more are going to emerge. Today, The Lenfest Institute for Journalism, OpenAI and Microsoft announced that they are collaborating with Open AI and Microsoft to help local newsrooms use AI. They are initially giving money to Chicago Public Media, Newsday, The Minnesota Star Tribune, The Philadelphia Inquirer and The Seattle Times. Those organisations can use the cash to work together and run selected projects. Will this save local media? No? Is it worth a try? Sure. Read more with a paid subscription
