Not an Internet Error: How 404 Media Aims to Shake Up Online Journalism
Podcast: On the MediaPublished On: Wed Sep 11 2024
Description: Last summer, OTM host Micah Loewenger reported a piece about the rise of worker-owned newsrooms: Hell Gate, a local New York publication, and Defector, a national outlet focused on sports and culture. Inspired by Defector and Hell Gate, more worked-owned outlets have come on the scene — including 404 Media, known for its mix of fun internet coverage and hard-nosed investigations. In this week’s midweek podcast, Micah speaks to 404 co-founder Samantha Cole about the challenges they have faced since they started their own outlet. Plus, what their success can teach us about the future of news. On the Media is supported by listeners like you. Support OTM by donating today (https://pledge.wnyc.org/support/otm).
