Kara Swisher认为哈里斯的媒体宣传活动,虽然可能为时已晚,但其策略是利用当下流行的媒体平台,例如播客Call Her Daddy、60分钟、The View、Stephen Colbert和Howard Stern等,来接触更广泛的受众,并认为这是一个适应媒体格局变化的策略。她认为,哈里斯选择在一些非传统媒体平台露面,反映了媒体格局的转变,播客已经成为一种重要的媒体形式。 Scott Galloway则认为哈里斯应该在Joe Rogan的播客上露面,因为Rogan的受众中有一部分人尚未决定支持谁,这将是一个接触潜在支持者的有效策略。他认为哈里斯选择在像《Call Her Daddy》这样的播客上露面是一个明智之举,因为这些播客拥有庞大的受众,并且能够接触到那些不太可能观看传统新闻节目的观众。他同时指出,四年前的总统候选人不太可能出现在这些播客上,这突显了媒体格局的巨大变化。

Shownotes Transcript

Kara and Scott discuss Kamala Harris's big media blitz, and the podcast (aside from Pivot) that she should really appear on. Then, Elon Musk leapt into the air at Donald Trump's weekend rally in Pennsylvania, and a lot of people had thoughts. Plus, Google is finally facing some real competition when it comes to the $300 billion search advertising business. Our Friend of Pivot is Chris Urmson, founder and CEO of Aurora, a start-up focusing on autonomous trucking. Chris explains how Aurora is getting driverless trucks on the road, and why the technology could be good for the economy.
