As I noted, I'm not criticising the author, but because Forbes has sullied their reputation just to lend their name to nearly anyone. The warning is for someone who's still unaware that Forbes has turned into this and they should probably check who's behind the author and not rely on the Forbes' name to lend credence to the ideas (which unfortunately has published some very, very questionable articles like obvious pump-and-dump schemes).
... which is unfortunate since that there's still a Forbes newsroom (which produce the published magazine editions) which is the only part of Forbes which has actual editorial accountability (and therefore you can lend to Forbes' name).

- bradtemp 5y agoWhile Forbes does have some articles from paying contributors, these are marked. Articles from "Senior Contributors" involve paying the contributor, not the other way around. So not really like Medium or Substack (Though these do provide some remuneration to those who restrict their articles to paying subscribers, I believe.)
