Weekly Subscription News: Growing, Limiting and Unloading

Featuring Snapchat, Warner Bros. Discovery, National Geographic and Twitter

We hope you had a great Fourth of July week! Of course, the subscription news continued while we were away. Snapchat+ reaches 4 million paid subscribers in a year’s time, Warner Bros. Discovery may bring Live CNN to Max, and two Alden papers discontinue commenting. Also, National Geographic lays off remaining staff writers, Elon Musk puts new limits on tweets, and ByteDance, the parent of TikTok, is going to become a publisher.
