DIGITAL DATA
 
There’s a 40% chance that corporate tax reform will lead Apple to buy Netflix, according to analysts from Citigroup. “Historically, Apple has avoided repatriating cash to the U.S. to avoid high taxation,” said the analysts’ note. “As such, tax reform may allow Apple to put this cash to use. With over 90% of its cash sitting overseas, a one-time 10% repatriation tax would give Apple $220 billion for M&A or buybacks.” Forbes begs to differ, noting Apple’s reported $1 billion investment to create its own original scripted TV shows.
 
Speaking of, Apple grabbed Are You Sleeping, from Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine. Thriller drama project stars Octavia Spencer (Hidden Figures).
 
Netflix announced a sequel to sci-fi film Bright, which arrived on the streaming service December 22 to (ahem) mixed reviews, but was one of Netflix’s biggest original launches with 11 million viewers over its first 3 days. David Ayer will write and direct, and Eric Newman and Bryan Unkeless will produce.

A&E’s Live PD muscled past the likes of AMC monster hit The Walking Dead to top the list of Inscape’s most DVRed shows of 2017. Dead was second on the list, and topped the VOD and OTT charts.
 
 
ADVERTISING & BRANDS
 
The Association of National Advertisers has acquired nonprofit trade group Word of Mouth Marketing Association. “Our interest in WOMMA reflects marketers increasing focus on brand building through social and, in particular, influencer marketing,” said Bob Liodice, ANA CEO. “This is a specialty area of emphasis which ANA plans to dramatically ramp up in the year or two ahead.”

Verizon’s Oath will work with 45th and Dean to produce short- and long-form content for cord avoiding millennials. “We’re excited to offer fans of A+E Networks more access than ever across Verizon’s FiOS footprint and now, across our family of digital media properties,” said Brian Angiolet, SVP, global chief media and content officer at Verizon.
