But also a true thing: In 1994, when Simpson fled police in his white Bronco, 95 million people watched the slow-motion chase on TV, in real time. In 1994, AOL, the service that popularized the "World Wide Web," had a little more than a million subscribers. AdvertisementAnd the notion that we're never getting a TV event like the Simpson affair is not a new one, either. Digital media can certainly focus a lot of people's attention on one thing, but it can't compel everyone to watch one thing. Now I'm going to go stream June 17th, 1994 — ESPN's documentary about the Simpson chase.

As 2024 kicks off, the creator economy is having an identity crisis. "The venture-scale generational companies are, yes, creator companies, but they're also typically fitting into another bucket." Why the creator economy has been 'disappointing'Once pitched as a rocket-ship opportunity, service companies in the creator economy that focus on products for influencers haven't delivered, investors and industry professionals told BI. Although the phrase already existed, the world needed a new way to describe this prospering industry, and thus, the term "creator economy" entered the mainstream. Lia Haberman, an influencer marketing expert and instructor at UCLA Extension, described influencer marketing as separate from the services arm of the creator industry that has faltered.

Elon Musk appeared to respond to MrBeast blowing off his entreaties to put his videos on X.Musk said "creator rewards will increase significantly" in 2024. Musk made the announcement on Tuesday, after a recent exchange in which MrBeast said X didn't pay enough to justify putting videos there. AdvertisementMusk's tweet came two weeks after MrBeast, one of YouTube's top creators, with 229 million subscribers, rejected Musk's offer to post videos on X. AdvertisementIn an exchange with Donaldson in October 2022, Musk promised "higher compensation for creators" than on YouTube, but Donaldson was skeptical. In August, Olajide Olatunji, better known as KSI, told his fellow YouTuber Logan Paul on his podcast, "Impaulsive," that he didn't think X "paid that much."

From product updates to startup rebrands, community has been at the forefront of press releases these past several months. Kajabi, a popular online course platform, recently announced that its creators had earned more than $6 billion using its platform. "We need a bit of everything," Amsellem said, adding that online communities and social platforms "are not going to solve loneliness" by themselves. For instance, Lennon's community on Kajabi hosts about 3,000 members — roughly the size of a small town in the US. Across all of Kajabi, the platform hosts more than 32,000 communities and over 2 million community members, per the company.

To celebrate the sale of its billionth bottle, Prime opened two limited stores in London and NYC. The stores was gold themed, and included the chance to win a $500,000 gold Prime bottle.

CNN —YouTube and WWE star Logan Paul defeated MMA fighter Dillon Danis by disqualification in Saturday’s influencer boxing event at the AO Arena in Manchester, England. But the occasion descended into chaos afterwards as security piled into the ring to separate the two fighters while Paul himself clambered on top of the ropes and held his arm aloft in a victory salute. “He’s supposed to be good at jiu-jitsu, what happened?” Paul said afterwards, according to broadcaster DAZN. “I said from day one, there’ll never be another Tyson Fury, I’m just trying to be the best Tommy Fury I can be.”The high-profile double-header garnered huge interest online – the quartet have a combined following of over 17 million on X, formerly known as Twitter. Misfits Boxing, the promotors of the event, told CNN that general sale of the tickets sold out within an hour, with the whole night being sold out in a week.

New York CNN —For being less than two years old, Prime energy and sport drinks are already enduring a major growth spurt. Prime’s portfolioThe duo’s first drink, Hydration, is a Gatorade-like sports drink that mixes coconut water and electrolytes, without sugar or caffeine. In 2013, a Senate panel held a similar hearing with top energy drinks. “It will be interesting to see how the Prime crew alters their pitch, or the branding on the energy drink to move it away from potential confusion with the sports drink, if there’s a hearing,” he said. Meanwhile, Prime Energy has raked in around $42.5 million this year, according to Circana data given to BevNet.

Some energy drinks surpass the caffeine content of Prime.

The province will start exporting 14 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) when LNG Canada enters service in 2025.
