Question of the day: Platforms, friend or foe?

The role of platforms was a major topic for attendees at Digiday’s publishing summit in Vail.

Find out what industry leaders like Andrea Mazey, director of online and video partnerships at Bonnier, Jed Hartman, CRO of The Washington Post, Amanda Gomez, senior director of revenue operations at the New York Post, and Kurt Muller, COO of The Onion have to say about Snapchat, Twitter, and the Facebook-Google duopoly.
