In the past few months, Snap has informed publishers that it will no longer pay them licensing fees for their Snapchat Discover channels, instead focusing its deals with those publishers on sharing ad revenue generated from Discover.

This year's Digital Content NewFronts end today. Here are five things we learned from the event.

Apple wants to compete with Facebook, YouTube and Twitter as a distribution outlet for news publishers. That's why it's paying publishers like BuzzFeed News to premiere shows on Apple News.

"A constant drip of emails": With the enforcement of the General Data Protection Regulation looming, marketers and publishers are sending messages ranging from notices that their terms of service have changed to requests for users' consent to track their online behavior.

At the end of last year, The Economist formed a 12-person data journalism team to distribute its charts more widely on social media. Here's how that team drives subscriptions.

In case you missed it: On the latest episode of the Digiday Podcast, The Atlantic's Hayley Romer explains what publishers can offer advertisers that platforms can't.
