(serious question not trying to demean Pando): does Pando have enough readership to warrant being included in the press section of an event with competitive press entry? I've enjoyed a lot of the Pando articles I've read, but I don't see them around very much and I pay a lot of attention to the tech press. Plus, it's pay-walled for the most part right? Even if they don't have the readership to support this it isn't a criticism of it as a journalistic endeavor or business, but I'm just wondering if this warrants such a complaint.
