When does the NYT have something positive to say about a tech company?
- wpasc 9y ago"If it bleeds, it leads." News media will rarely say something positive about any tech company, probably even worse so than the general bias towards negativity
- smt88 9y agoIf you think that's true, you should check out all the glowing write-ups of Theranos, Amazon (specifically Bezos), and Microsoft (specifically Nadella). The coverage isn't/wasn't universally good, but I think we do get a pretty good picture of most tech companies from mainstream media.
- freehunter 9y agoIf major (non-tech) publications are saying good things about a tech company, it's probably a submarine article.
- wpietri 9y agoLooking at the last week, I count at least five positive articles about tech companies, including Apple's new iPad, Waymo's expansion, an AI VFX startup, Dropbox's IPO, and Safari's picture-in-picture mode.
- yorby 9y agoMost reported news appears to be negative for some reason... at least in the mass-media
