Aside from my own personal issues with that chart, two big differences:
- we're vetting the journalist, so this can include the ever growing number of freelancers/independents and many smaller outlets that would never make it onto a chart like that; and the delivery mechanism.
We are pulling in reporters who work for all sorts of outlets, from small local newspapers to national TV networks, across various types of media, beats/verticals, and locations. We want to be "around the block and around the world," covering local stories across the US and major national/world issues.
Like social media, users can self-curate, to see everything in one place, based on their own interests. For a casual news consumer, you don't need to go to 20 different websites to see headlines.
