He's IMO a perfect example of the intractability of the "fake news" problem. It's not that there aren't high quality news sources out there, like Matt Levine, it's that the market (in the form of folks willing to pay for it) isn't there.
(Maybe it's technology? Micropayments still aren't effectively a thing?)
- jdminhbg 6y agoThe market for Levine is certainly there. He could easily clear 7 figures on Substack.
- quickthrower2 6y agoWhy substack? Wouldn’t Wordpress / namecheap do the trick? Why would he need a discovery platform?
- jdminhbg 6y agoSubstack would serve as a billing/subscription management platform for him, not discovery.
