Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • Defy Media was an American digital media company that produced original online content for the 12–34 age group. Originally founded in 1996 as Alloy Online (later Alloy Digital), the final company was formed in 2013 by its merger with Break Media. On November 6, 2018, the company ceased operations after its assets were frozen by creditors leaving channels like Smosh without a company. Several former employees blamed poor financial management, while high overhead from YouTube, legal troubles, overly-aggressive expansion, and a shrinking advertising market were also described as contributing factors.

  • Defy Media était une société américaine de médias numériques qui produisait du contenu en ligne original pour le groupe d'âge des 12 à 34 ans. Fondée à l'origine en 1996 sous le nom d'Alloy Online (plus tard Alloy Digital), la société finale a été formée en 2013 par sa fusion avec Break Media. Le 6 novembre 2018, la société a cessé ses activités après que ses actifs aient été gelés par des créanciers laissant des canaux comme Smosh sans société. Plusieurs anciens employés ont blâmé la mauvaise gestion financière, avec des frais dédiés à YouTube élevés, des problèmes juridiques, une expansion trop agressive et un marché publicitaire en contraction ont également été décrits comme des facteurs contributifs.
