‘Platforms are not forever’: Hearst’s Troy Young on platform-publisher relations

Troy Young, president of Hearst Magazines Digital Media, said social platforms need to share more of their financial success with publishers because creating great content is expensive.

If they don't, publishers like Hearst will deprioritize them. "What you’re seeing is little bit of boldness to say we deserve a bigger piece of revenue," he said.
