In this episode of #ThisOldMarketing, Joe and Robert talk briefly about Google, or should we say, Alphabet, before moving on to a critical issue for publishers: Online Display Advertising and its demise. Then, the boys discuss the hi-jacking of the term "content marketing" and are journalists really content marketers after all. More content marketing research as well. Raves include Target and Nike's video program. TOM Example of the Week: Aldus Pagemaker.
