What I Learned This Week: I'd Rather Be a Star Than a Leader

Used as an adjective to describe a company's stature, the word "Leader" has degenerated into an ineffective cliché, one that is not only a weak, second-rate aspiration, but a hard-to-measure milestone that shines as bright as a plastic neon glowstick...and lasts about as long as one, too.

The biggest heist in history was when newspapers and magazines allowed Google to "crawl" their content to readers, to pay nothing and to sell ads around their stories. Google became, in other words, the ubiquitous newspaper right under the noses of proprietors who should have charged.

Media Bites: Why Canadian Politics Isn't Netflix Material

2012-04-27-mediabitesreal.jpg The fact that Canada has spent a decade creating nothing comparable to House of Cards, Game Change and many more political dramas is a shame, but hardly surprising. We're a plucky lot -- and certainly no slackers in the world of entertainment -- but this is one realm where we're hopelessly out-gunned. There's never been (and never will be) a compelling Canadian political drama for one simple reason: Canadian politics is not interesting. "Yes sir, we'll get right on that, sir" isn't the sort of dialogue from which compelling scripts are made.

After we'd exhausted our favorite shows and watched numerous movies from the '80s that we'd forgotten about, we grew a bit bored with Netflix. So it's only natural that the company would take another step and move forward with a smart, thoughtful plan.

When Netflix Imitates Life

"The Corporation" proved all over again just how much we've changed in 50 years. As I drive through rural New Brunswick, I can plainly see the great hollowing out of the rural economies. You see the old people still living alone in their crumbling houses, paint peeling and the part-time people who arrive in new SUVs and summer-ize their freshly painted pastel cottages overlooking the sea.

Finally, the Death of TV

Television as we know it is dying, but most people don't perceive yet the dramatic change that is bubbling below the surface. A stunning report released at this week's Consumer Electronic's Show, CES, points to a wholesale collapse of traditional TV viewing -- with the percentage of consumer TV viewing in a typical week plummeting from 71 per cent in 2009 to 48 per cent in 2011.
