Honestly, you have to laugh. When a former president decides to throw his toys out of the pram with a ten billion dollar lawsuit, my first thought isn’t about the political theatre. It’s about the money. Because when one media giant gets dragged through the mud, a whole host of others are waiting patiently with a bucket and spade, ready to scoop up the spoils. It’s a tale as old as time, really. A big row kicks off, and the neighbours suddenly find their gardens are looking a lot greener.
For investors, I think this kind of high profile spat is less a crisis and more a rather useful signpost. It points directly to where the advertising money, and the audience, might be heading next.

Let’s be clear about what’s happening here. The lawsuit against News Corp isn’t just a headline. It’s a massive, stinking cloud of uncertainty. And if there’s one thing advertisers dislike more than bad coffee, it’s uncertainty. They get nervous. They start looking for safer places to park their budgets, places that aren’t associated with a messy, public legal battle.
This isn’t rocket science. It’s human nature. When your favourite pub gets a bad reputation, you find a new local. The same principle applies to news and entertainment. Viewers start to drift, and advertisers, who are paid to follow those viewers, drift right along with them. The market share doesn’t just vanish into thin air, it simply relocates. The question for us is, where to?

The most obvious beneficiaries are, of course, the other giants in the playground. A company like Meta Platforms, with its enormous reach across Facebook and Instagram, is practically licking its lips. It offers a digital safe harbour for advertising budgets fleeing the storm. Then you have the likes of Disney, a sprawling empire of trusted brands from ABC News to ESPN. It stands as a direct, stable alternative for anyone looking for their news and entertainment fix without the legal drama.
Even the newer, more chaotic kids on the block, like Reddit, could see a benefit. Its community led structure offers a completely different flavour of content, one that might appeal to audiences tired of the old guard bickering amongst themselves. These companies are the big predators, circling and waiting for a moment of weakness.

But it’s not just about the titans. I find the real opportunity is often in the less obvious corners of the market. Think about local television stations. When national news becomes a political football, many people retreat to sources they feel are more grounded and trustworthy, which often means their local news broadcast. Companies like Nexstar and Gray Television, with their networks of local stations, could quietly see their viewership numbers tick up.
And then there’s the relentless march of digital. Platforms like Spotify, with its booming podcast business, or even Roku, which controls the gateway to our streaming services, are perfectly positioned. They represent the new media landscape, one that is less about monolithic broadcasters and more about curated, individual experiences. To me, it’s less about backing one horse and more about understanding the entire race. This kind of disruption is precisely what a diversified approach, like the one seen in the Media Giants Battle, is designed to navigate. Of course, all investing carries risk, and there are no guarantees of a positive outcome. The media world can be particularly volatile, but spotting the direction of travel is half the battle.
