US news consumers are turning to podcaster Joe Rogan and away from traditional sources, report shows

(Reuters) -Prominent podcasters like Joe Rogan are playing a bigger role in news dissemination in the United States, as are AI chatbots, contributing to the further erosion of traditional media, according to a report released on Tuesday. In the week following the January 2025 U.S. presidential inauguration, more Americans said they got their news from social and video networks than from TV and websites and apps - the first time that shift has occurred, the report said. Traditional U.S. increasingly risks being eclipsed by online personalities and creators, the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism said in its annual Digital Report, which is based on an online survey of almost 100,000 people in 48 markets, including the United States.

What Wes Anderson thinks of social media imitations of his aesthetic

Flattering or frustrating? "The Phoenician Scheme" director weighs in on the memes.
Wes Anderson's unique filmmaking style has inspired a wave of internet imitators who recreate everything from real-life events to popular culture moments in his distinctive aesthetic, characterized by symmetrical compositions, pastel color palettes, and quirky narratives. In an interview with Mashable, Anderson expressed his amusement and flattery at these tributes, noting that while he finds them entertaining, he does not seek them out or let them influence his work. He appreciates the creativity and effort put into these imitations, which range from short films to social media posts, and sees them as a testament to the impact of his films on audiences. Anderson also discussed his latest project, "The French Dispatch," and how he continues to focus on his own creative vision despite the growing trend of Anderson-inspired content online.
