Second LA Times related article I’ve seen on here recently. The former was published by the LA Times: a piece on global warming with a corresponding game. I’d say the HN commentary was quite positive.
I have a friend working there as a SWE/data viz contributor, and he’s really excited about the editorial and data viz staff.
That being said, it does sound (from article and friend) like they just got out of the technical woods with the release of their revamped website. They obviously still have work to do based on these churn numbers.
The price is high though. I subscribe to NYT, so do I need another?
- kbenson 7y agoAt this point I'm just wondering why some major online news player hasn't made a platform good enough that these papers don't feel the need to make their own. It could also make bundled subscriptions trivial and a way to get good national and local coverage while reducing cost. Does the LA Times really have a chance of competing with NYT or WaPo? At this point I'm not sure why they should try, other than hubris.
