yes but is that true in journalism? (The topic Mark Cuban is discussing)
Software development is unique in that there are no real barriers to entry. Rather than take an unpaid internship writing code, I can write code at home. But what he wants to provide to aspiring journalists is a space in the locker room after games, access to practices, players and coaches, etc. That's very different.
Also, the premise wasn't useless and unneeded. It was not financially viable. In Cuban's article, he mentions plenty of reasons why it would be useful. But they aren't enough to justify the cost of starting such a project.
