      well that’s the gamble they make. Maybe before nyt would give CB days to figure things out or get their response together. The next call maybe be “we need your comment within one hour.” All goodwill is gone

      There is a bit of a double standard though. Journalists say “I can report everything you tell me any time I want, unless we have an explicit ex ante agreement otherwise”. And yet they also expect companies to keep information secret with no such agreement.

      CB can’t say “well, tell us what you’re going to say and when you’re going to say it, and we’ll prepare a blog post to go up 1 minute later in response.” NYT would never agree to such a deal.

      Also, what’s the downside for CB? What’s the sanction? Shorter heads up time?

      It’s not tit-for-tat. But all companies including Coinbase work hard on building good relations with the press, for myriad reasons. This action damages those relations.

      Is this considered unethical?

      Yeah I think this theory is pretty bizarre. Unless there's an explicit agreement to the contrary I think the subject of a story has every right in the world to preemptively react to the story.

      Yes. If anything, I think the journalists have an ethical duty to remain above the tit-for-tat despite any preemptive response. Journalism is the one with a claim to a public service (which I believe in and support). The company has no corresponding claim or obligation.

      I'm sympathetic to Coinbase here, but this is an interesting steelman of the other side (THREAD):https://twitter.com/acesounderglass/status/1332138447578939393 …

      Julia Galef added,

      Elizabeth @acesounderglass
      Steelman for coinbase thing: NYT prefers accusations fact checked > not fact checked, but controlling the timing is even more important. If they don't believe they can't get fact checking w/o losing control of timing, they won't offer fact checking opportunities.

      Yes, of course. This is not ideal from the reporting side.
