Piers can see the writing on the wall, the viewership is online for long, multi-hour content to compliment short form clips on TikTok, not broadcast media and their strict regime of schedules.
Have to say, I have also seen regular content creators on YouTube, Rumble, Odysse et al also move in this direction. Channels that used to put out 20-30 minute concise content are now expanding it to 1-2 hour live streams, if not longer on increasing occasion.
The days of 10-60 minute video and audio form content is dying. People either want long form or clip form content, nothing in between.
What makes alternate media better than establishment media that these people always fail to realize is there are more people on alternate services that are directly beholden to their audience. Coupled with decentralism, alternate services have something for everyone.
Establishment media is the complete opposite and has no interest in giving people what they want.
