- adamrezich 4y agocan you explain what you mean by "It just seems to be Forbes contributors with even less vetting"? I am subscribed to several different columns, with a couple of paid subscriptions, all about a very wide variety of topics—it's just a blog/podcast platform.
- neither_color 4y agoLayperson here: When I click on a forbes article I usually don't notice the author. On Substack I'm subscribed to specific authors and one former newspaper/ now independent journalist I follow.
- manuelmoreale 4y agoHonest question: why is noticing/not noticing the author relevant to you? Isn’t the point of reading something to consume the actual content? I totally get the point of following people you’re already familiar with and have a track record of quality. Not arguing against that. I’m just interested in your comment about not noticing the author.
