We believe that the best Web content optimization strategy is something as old as journalism itself: the shocking truth and the authentic opinion.

I think there's a future where the Web and print coexist and they each do things uniquely and complement each other, and we have what could be the ultimate and best-yet array of journalistic venues.

Journalism is being pushed into a space where I don't think it should ever go, where it's trying to support the monetization model of the Web by driving page views. So what you have is a drop-off of long-form journalism, because long-form pieces are harder to monetize.

I think newspapers shouldn't try to compete directly with the Web, and should do what they can do better, which may be long-form journalism and using photos and art, and making connections with large-form graphics and really enhancing the tactile experience of paper.

I'm focused on getting to a place where we can prove that journalism can make good money on the web.

I believe journalism or news will migrate to the online medium.

The lazy blogosphere has given up on journalism and now trolls Twitter for their on-the-record in-depth articles.

Journalism: an ability to meet the challenge of filling the space.

Internet journalism is not a world we know very well at all. It's conducted more on the screen and less in bars, which makes it rather less useful for getting stories about people throwing up over one another, which is what one's after.

Journalism is a craft that takes years to learn. It's like golf. You never get it right all the time. It's a game of fewer errors, better facts, and better reporting.
