Are Media CEO on US deal; SCA finally exits TV; Netflix's Aussie earnings; will AI take jobs?

7 May 2025 This morning, Are Media announced a deal that it would sell ads for US publisher Dotdash Meredith in the Australian market. Hal had a rare chat with Are Media's CEO Jane Huxley who claims the sun has come out. Meanwhile, Southern Cross Austereo (SCA) is officially selling its remaining regional TV licences to Seven West Media — and not Australian Digital Holdings (ADH) as was originally planned. We discuss if this was a good move for SCA, and ADH's response to the news. Netflix's Australian financial accounts have been filed and they're raking in over $1 billion in cash — good for them, but what about their tax dealings is unfair? Yesterday, Unmade's Humain conference took place in Sydney. There was much on the agenda, but it was AI consultant Lucio Ribeiro and his stance that AI will replace jobs that got us thinking... is he right? Join Hal Crawford, Tim Burrowes and Abe Udy for a look at everything under Australia’s media and marketing umbrella.
