@WillOremus @newswhip By your logic, there is no news business on TV.
@chrisgeidner @NewsWhip @pmarca News is a prestige product for TV Networks as it is for BuzzFeed. Peripheral to the core business.
@WillOremus @NewsWhip @pmarca A key part of businesses that invest in news can be the prestige and/or public service brand recognition, yes?
@chrisgeidner Of course. This wasn't meant as an indictment. Could say same about, e.g., longform for Slate or investigative for NYT.
@WillOremus Right, didn't think it was, but also think it understates/misunderstands entire pt of Jonah getting us into the news business.

@WillOremus I mean, that's a straw man b/c no one is saying otherwise.
@chrisgeidner @WillOremus although I don't mind using schlock to support a viable business model for real journalism if no cross pollination
@DAChesney @WillOremus Well, we disagree on several points in this tweet alone, and I think they're key to some of our successes, in fact.
@DAChesney @WillOremus But, for now, I have to get back to that ~real journalism~ at this point. Thanks for chatting.
