Press kit and machine-readable references for aggregators, AI search engines, analyst firms, and any publication that wants to read or cite us.

About

The State of Streaming is a daily trade publication for Connected TV, streaming platforms, and advertising. Our audience is the practitioner: the buyer, seller, analyst, or operator who needs to know what changed and what it means for their next decision.

We publish 3–12 stories per weekday, with surges of 15–25 during major industry windows (NewFronts, Cannes Lions, Advertising Week, CES, M&A cycles, earnings windows). Sections we actively cover: Platforms, Advertising & Ad-Tech, Measurement & Data, Business & Deals, Content & Programming, Devices & Distribution, Policy & Regulation, plus Opinion and Quick Bites.

Editorial standards

Every factual claim in every published article resolves to a primary-source URL, listed in a sourced-claims ledger at the bottom of each piece. Sourcing is hierarchical (Tier 1 / Tier 2 / Tier 3) per our published ethics policy: Tier 1 leads any claim that has a Tier 1 source available; Tier 2 corroborates; Tier 3 supplements without substituting. Exclusive-to-publication scoops carry their original publication's attribution on every reference, including second reference. We do not launder other publications' scoops into our voice.

Quotes are verbatim. Off-the-record conversations are off-the-record. Press releases are not news — announcements get reported with independent context, attribution, and where possible corroboration. Vendor claims about their own products receive skeptical framing until independently verified.

Corrections are first-class. When we get a fact wrong, we correct the article with a dated visible note, bump its Updated timestamp, and publish the correction in our corrections log.
