Just what is Apple going to unveil Monday?
APM: Marketplace Tech 03-22-2019 04:30

On Monday, Apple is holding a special event tagged with the line "It's showtime!" That's led to wide speculation the company will finally reveal its streaming service. Recode reports, seemingly based largely on its own intel, that the announcement will mainly involve packaging and selling other companies' content. So maybe not the Apple-takes-on-Netflix battle some were hoping for. Is Monday's announcement going to be less Showtime, more Crackle? Marketplace’s Jed Kim talked with Brian Wieser, who leads business intelligence for advertising firm GroupM. He says if you were paying attention to Apple's reported budget for original content, around $1 billion,...

As part of a series on extremism on the internet, Marketplace's Molly Wood explores how people get radicalized online. Read about what the responsibility is of social media companies to curb this type of activity (if any) and how internet "echo chambers" can lead to faster radicalization. Marketplace Tech is taking a look this week at how people get radicalized online. They may start out as trolls making tasteless jokes, get sucked deeper into increasingly radical communities and maybe take the step to commit violence in the real world, like the Christchurch shooter in New Zealand. What can the biggest social media...

As part of a series on extremism on the internet, Marketplace's Molly Wood explores how people get radicalized online. Read about what the responsibility is of social media companies to curb this type of activity (if any) and why it really is not that hard to block the content. This week Marketplace Tech is looking at how an online troll becomes a terrorist, how people are recruited and radicalized online through social media and how companies can deal with it. Host Molly Wood talked with Fathali Moghaddam, a professor of psychology at Georgetown University. In 2005, he published a paper called "The...

As part of a series on extremism on the internet, Marketplace's Molly Wood explores how people get radicalized online. Read about how internet "echo chambers" can lead to faster radicalization and why it really is not that hard to block the content. The man accused of killing at least 50 Muslim worshippers in Christchurch, New Zealand, last week seems to be, in many ways, the ultimate example of online radicalization. Researchers and social media experts have warned for years that there is a playbook for turning trolls into terrorists. Host Molly Wood talked with Becca Lewis, a research affiliate at the nonprofit...

With typical Tesla fanfare and in front of his typical rabid fan base, Elon Musk unveiled Tesla's newest vehicle, the Model Y. The Y is essentially a crossover or SUV version of the Model 3, and it could be a very smart move. Americans don't buy mostly sedans anymore. But they did buy a lot of Tesla Model 3s. It was the top-selling luxury vehicle last year. Host Jed Kim talked with Jack Stewart, Marketplace's transportation reporter, who was at the unveiling. Stewart says the Y isn't a space-age leap forward. Instead, it's really similar to the Model 3. The...

The fatal crashes of two Boeing 737 Max 8s within the past six months have prompted a global grounding of the aircraft and questions about design. Demand for Boeing aircraft has put pressure on the Chicago-based aviation giant to churn out about 50 planes a month. How does the demand to deliver so many planes impact the design process and flight software development? Marketplace’s Jed Kim talked with Alwyn Scott, manufacturing and technology correspondent at Reuters. He's been covering aviation for years and says making new planes entails a lot of oversight. The following is an edited transcript of their...
