The one has a clear focus on tech and startups, the other has a broad network of correspondents spanning the world.
In retrospect, PandoDaily would probably make me jump to "terrible journalism", too.
- tptacek 14y agoI see the conclusion I jumped to. You were just saying, "tough to see whether they're launching a tech news site or a global news site". I hope it's more like the latter! I think sites like PandoDaily have a problem similar to the one CNN has: they have a mandate to produce more news content than there is to report. In CNN's case it's because they've commandeered a 24/7 cable channel and entered into a ridiculous competition; in the tech/trade press, it's because they've got such a narrow scope --- and again, because they're in what they perceive as a winner-take-all competition with each other.
