CNN is making its rounds to media agencies with its upfront pitch, unsurprisingly leaning heavily into the 2020 presidential election.
This week the news behemoth brought its so-called CNN Experience to Horizon Media. The presentation comes on the heels of AT&T receiving approval from an appeals court to move forward with its acquisition of CNN parent WarnerMedia.
Now under AT&T’s leadership, CNN President Jeff Zucker told Horizon staffers that the network will lean heavily into the company’s data capabilities to grow its digital business. (Zucker also recently gained oversight of WarnerMedia’s sports division.)

Sephora axed its cosmetics collection created with Olivia Jade Giannulli, the popular YouTuber and Instagram influencer caught up in a massive college admissions cheating scandal. Her parents, actress Lori Loughlin and fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli, were among dozens of people accused of lying or cheating to get their kids into college. The makeup collection was called “Olivia Jade x Sephora,” and Sephora probably no longer wanted its name attached to hers. As Ad Age’s Adrianne Pasquarelli writes, commenters posted Twitter urging the company to drop 19-year-old Giannulli, a student at the University of Southern California. “@Sephora, you gonna fire that Olivia Jade?” one person wrote.

“The Official Cloud of the NCAA” is making its second March Madness run with a new campaign featuring actual students.
Google Cloud inked a multiyear sponsorship deal with NCAA last year, and teamed up with the organization to turn more than 80 years of data into actual insights for its last campaign. Now the company is switching things up. It recruited some 30 students to help come up with interesting predictions alongside its own team of data scientists.
“The concept of ‘explosiveness’ or when the announcer says, ‘This team is really explosive’ the students went in to figure out what goes into that,” Alison Wagonfeld, chief marketing officer at Google Cloud, says. “From a campaign standpoint, it is phenomenal because it shows how easy and accessible Google Cloud is.”

Care
They share everything. Including hunger, They go to sleep together. With hunger that is.
CARE is an international NGO focused on helping people in African countries affected by hunger. They are known worldwide since the WW2, when they were providing CARE packages with help. To bring attention to the most endangered group – children, we decided to use symbols of childhood well known for everybody despite their nationality or age – toys. Regular toys represent happy childhood, therefore we created something to represent childhood filled with hunger – skinny toys.

David Herrmann could only watch helplessly as Facebook deducted thousands of dollars from his advertising accounts.
The social network went down along with its automated ad platform for 12 hours Wednesday, and Herrmann was powerless to turn off the campaigns he manages for advertising clients. On a normal day, he is used to action; a performance-based marketer juggling the ad accounts of about 15 clients, Herrmann is required to be hyper-vigilant with how their money gets spent on Facebook.
Some advertisers reportedly ended up paying upwards of 300 percent more for some ads due to erract activity in the ad auctions.

As part of Ad Age’s ongoing media-about-media coverage, a quick look at coverage of the college admissions scandal that’s been dominating the national conversation.
The bottom line: This is a story that has a little bit of everything for everyoneincluding celebrity, wealth, power, ridiculously entitled parents, spoiled children, brazen fraud and outright stupiditywhich is why it’s been embraced by media across the spectrum.
The nation’s A-list newpapers all made the scandal front-page, above-the-fold news this morning: The New York Times, for instance, went with the headline “U.S. Charges Rich Parents in College Entry Fraud” (tweaked for the web to “College Admissions Scandal: Actresses, Business Leaders and Other Wealthy Parents Charged”). The cable news networks, meanwhile, are particularly obsessed with the camera-ready players in the drama: Felicity “Desperate Housewives” Huffman and Lori “Full House” Loughlin, as well as Loughlin’s husband, fashion designer Mossimo Giannulliplus (bonus!) Loughlin and Giannulli’s Instagram/YouTube-famous daughter, Olivia Jade Giannulli. (Ad Age’s Angela Doland rounds up the 19-year-old’s now-controversial work with brands here.)
MDC Partners is preparing to announce tomorrow that Mark Penn’s Stagwell Group is making a $100 million equity investment in the holding company. Ad Age had earlier reported Stagwell was eyeing an investment.

The holding company plans to report its fourth quarter earnings results Friday morning.
