Is Apple Launching A New iPhone

I am not too sure how much faith to put in The Daily Mail, the tabloid newspaper of 'choice' here in the UK... 

but if they are right, then Apple is about to release its biggest phone ever.  Apple's annual big reveal show is about a month away now, and there is considerable buzz that Apple is about to relase a 6.5" phone (that's a lot bigger than the iPhoneX, which measures 5.5"). It's called, or so the Daily Mail says, the D33. 

The Daily Mail is also saying that this is iPhoneXI (or 11, for those who are not so good with Roman numerals and have been calling the X the EX, like my Ex wife). 

However, if the Mail is to be believed, the phone will have an edge to edge screen,which would make for some pretty incredible video. The larger size would also make video editing on the phone (I like iMovie) a bit easier to manage. 

The XI, will, in theory, come in several colors (or colours as we say here) - I could care less.  But it is also touted to have a much longer battery life, which would be a major improvement. According to The Daily Mail, the batter is touted to last 40% longer. 

It's also supposed to have an upgraded camera. (I think the camera on the X is pretty good already, but who knows). 

In any event, the Apple unveiling is scheduled for September 12th, so we'll all know by then.

There is a great deal of concern, well placed, that few people under the age of 30 watch TV news. Viewership of TV news in general has fallen off, so naturally, TV executives across the boards are searching for a solution. How to appeal to a demographic that spends most of their time on social media?


Sometimes when you are searching for something, the answer is right before your eyes. For years, I have been looking for a new and powerful way to cover breaking news stories - and now, I think, I've got it.


When we run our video storytelling bootcamps for TV news organizations, our primary focus is on what we call ‘the viewer experience’. It is a given that the journalism is well researched and accurate, but if no one is watching; if there is no ‘audience engagement’ with the story, then you are in fact showing it to no one, which is tragic, and avoidable.
