    Net revenue in the fourth quarter of 2021 totaled $233.9 million, up 36% from $171.7 million in the prior-year period. Of the overall increase, approximately $72.6 million was attributable to our digital segment and was primarily due to advertising revenue resulting from our acquisition of a majority interest in Cisneros Interactive during the fourth quarter of 2020, which became wholly-owned during the third quarter of 2021, and due to advertising revenue resulting from our acquisitions of MediaDonuts and 365 Digital during the third and fourth quarters of 2021, respectively. The overall increase was partially offset by a decrease of approximately $10.4 million that was attributable to our television and audio segments primarily due to decreases in political advertising revenue, partially offset by increases in local and national advertising revenue.

    Cost of revenue in the fourth quarter of 2021 totaled $148.4 million compared to $85.3 million in the prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to increased costs of revenue following our acquisition of a majority interest in Cisneros Interactive during the fourth quarter of 2020, which became wholly-owned during the third quarter of 2021, and due to our acquisitions of MediaDonuts and 365 Digital during the third and fourth quarters of 2021, respectively.

    Operating expenses in the fourth quarter of 2021 totaled $48.1 million, up 5% from $45.9 million in the prior-year period. Of the overall increase, approximately $3.3 million was attributable to our digital segment and was primarily due to our acquisition of a majority interest in Cisneros Interactive during the fourth quarter of 2020, which became wholly-owned during the third quarter of 2021, and due to operating expenses resulting from our acquisitions of MediaDonuts and 365 Digital during the third and fourth quarters of 2021, respectively. The overall increase was partially offset by decreases in our television and audio segments primarily due to a decrease in expenses associated with the decrease in advertising revenue, and decreases in bad debt and salary expense associated with furloughs and layoffs that occurred in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

    Corporate expenses in the fourth quarter of 2021 totaled $11.2 million, up 21% from $9.3 million in the prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

    Todos los detalles del concierto online gratuito de Rosalía

    La cantante española Rosalía continúa innovando en su música y en su carrera y esta vez, ha sorprendido a sus seguidores con el anuncio de un concierto gratuito online para México, Argentina, Estados Unidos y España a través de TikTok.

    Se trata de un evento en conjunto con la app de entretenimiento, en el que Rosalía presentará en directo su nuevo disco Motomami (2022), mientras que es acompañada por distintas ambientaciones y proyecciones. Con esta presentación, se continúa explorando el camino de los conciertos inmersivos, de los cuales ya hemos tenido muestras en el pasado con Travis Scott en Fortnite, J Balvin en Pokémon, Foo Fighters en el Metaverse, y esta ocasión, la española en la app móvil.

    El evento dará inicio el próximo 17 de marzo, a las 18:00 horas México, las 21:00 horas en Argentina, las 19:00 horas en Nueva York, las 16:00 horas en Los Ángeles y por último, a la 1:00 de la madrugada del 18 de marzo en su país natal España.

    Cabe señalar que el nuevo disco de Rosalía fue elogiado por la crítica por mantener una propuesta disruptiva, ante un panorama lleno de sonidos urbanos. También su sencillo ‘Saoko’, que combina géneros como el jazz, la electrónica y el reguetón, ha sido todo un éxito y a la fecha, acumula más de 18 millones de reproducciones en YouTube.

    Aquí te dejamos su cuenta de TikTok, así como el promocional que está utilizando para el concierto de este 17 de marzo. ¿Lo esperas?

  • Brad Pitt y Bad Bunny intercambian golpes en el tráiler de ‘Bullet Train’

    Brad Pitt y Bad Bunny intercambian golpes en el tráiler de ‘Bullet Train’

    Como lo dice el título de esta nota y por más extraño que parezca, el actor de Hollywood Brad Pitt y el cantante puertorriqueño Bad Bunny, protagonizan el nuevo tráiler de la cinta ‘Bullet Train’, la cual cuenta con actores de primer nivel como lo son Sandra Bullock, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Joey King, Logan Lerman, Zazie Beetz y Michael Shannon, por mencionar algunos.

    ‘Bullet Train’ (Tren Bala), fue presentado por Sony Pictures con las imágenes de Brad Pitt abordo de un tren, involucrado en una divertida pelea ya que esta debe darse en silencio debido a las reglas del transporte. De esta forma, ha quedado marcado que lo que más veremos en esta película es humor.

    Es durante la misma escena, que Benito intenta atacar a Pitt con una daga afilada convirtiéndose en un momento épico al ver a estas dos personalidades compartiendo en la pantalla grande.

    La sinopsis dice: “Cinco asesinos a bordo de un tren bala en rápido movimiento descubren que sus misiones tienen algo en común”, por lo que la narrativa estará centrada en estos cinco personajes que se encuentran atrapados en este tren bala. Cada uno recibirá un pseudónimo para no ser descubiertos y poder llevar a cabo su misión.

    Será así que los objetivos de cada uno comenzarán a entrelazarse y serán resueltos justo antes de que el tren llegue a su destino final. Por otro lado, circularon algunas escenas de la película en la Comic Con de Las Vegas, en donde se puede ver a Brad Pitt y a Bad Bunny nuevamente peleando, esta vez en un automóvil, lo que refleja que no será solo una pelea la que tendrán estos dos.

    Bullet Train es una adaptación de la novela Maria Bītoru (Maria Beetle) de Kōtarō Isaka, y es llevada a la pantalla grande por David Leitch (Deadpool 2, Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw), quien también dirige el film. La producción de Bullet Train está a cargo de Brad Pitt y también de Antoine Fuqua.

  • Enrique Bunbury se retira de los escenarios y las giras

    Enrique Bunbury se retira de los escenarios y las giras

    Después de más de 30 años de carrera, Enrique Bunbury, conocido por supuesto por Héroes del Silencio y su longeva trayectoria, anunció su retiro de los escenarios por problemas de salud, particularmente en su voz.

    El intérprete confirmó en redes sociales lo que se especulaba desde hace tiempo, pues durante los últimos meses ha atravesado momentos complicados tras cancelaciones de diversos shows de aniversario de 35 años a causa de la pandemia y problemas en su garganta.

    “Así, he tomado la decisión, muy meditada y consciente, de abandonar mi actividad interpretativa, en los conciertos y tours. Los conciertos que quedan pendientes de aquí a septiembre de 2022 en Estados Unidos y España serán los últimos que realice”, señaló el cantante en un comunicado, quien comenzó a sufrir este problema desde el 2015 en su gira de “Mutaciones” y después en 2016, en el tour de “Expectativas”.

    “Desde el momento que salgo de mi casa y comienzan viajes y shows, un compendio de síntomas y dolores me acompañan desde la mañana hasta el momento de subirme al show. He escuchado diferentes nombres y diagnósticos. La realidad es que mi garganta se cierra e irrita, y mis vías respiratorias dificultan el más leve ejercicio y la ejecución de mi trabajo”, precisó.

    Bunbury continuó explicando que el malestar en su garganta ha crecido tanto, que no le permite ni siquiera disfrutar ofrecer conciertos en vivo.

    “De manera que lo que normalmente era un placer y deleite, se ha convertido en fuente de inmenso dolor y sufrimiento. Nada de esto me ocurre jamás, si no estoy de gira”, dijo. A continuación, el comunicado.

    Sin embargo, esto no significa que sea el fin de su carrera, pues Enrique Bunbury aseguró que seguirá grabando música en el estudio, ya que el parón de los conciertos de los dos últimos años le ha permitido dedicarse a componer nuevas canciones.

    “Tengo la edad para hacer este cambio importante en mi vida y el apoyo de mi familia y management”, explicó. “Espero que lo que les pueda ofrecer a partir de ahora les siga interesando mínimamente. Así, también quiero agradecer a mi banda, los Santos Inocentes, y a todo mi equipo técnico. Ha sido un gran viaje. Gracias a todos”, concluyó, con la promesa de lanzar más discos futuro y dedicarse también a la poesía y a la pintura.
