I find it frustrating as these publications continue to get coverage they are not contextualized w/the fact that 2 entire generations of Medium publications have fallen apart before. I'm not bagging on good people working on them, but history is important. nytimes.com/2019/03/19/business/media/mark-bittman-medium-food-magazine.htmlPermalink On twitter.com

It's the equivalent of writing a glowing review of a new health care startup where the CTO is Elizabeth Holmes and not mentioning the events of Bad Blood. It's big a problem in tech and politics coverage, that it is so ahistorical.Permalink On twitter.com

If you're writing a profile of a new Medium publication the first question should be: 'What makes this different from all the previous failures at basically this exact same thing?' because that's an *important* question.Permalink On twitter.com

I understand some of the writing people involved will look at this as an opportunity for a higher salary they can leverage into a better job when it inevitably falls apart (totally fine!), but then don't frame these pub launches like some Guiding Star for the news industry.Permalink On twitter.com

That's not even getting into how a publication with a 3 month contract could possibly deliver on the promise to people who subscribed to Medium for that specific pub; or the problem of ephemerality as an entity running counter to a journalistic mission Choire/1108009384968445952Permalink On twitter.com
