Message: [QUOTE="billsin01, post: 1385943, member: 837"] The thing about Grantland is that it's actually thoughtful writing -- maybe not everyone's style and I don't frequent it that often -- but it's thoughtful creative journalism. That costs money to produce. It's the reason papers suck now -- no money to actually fund real journalism. So while everyone says 'wow, that's really good' everyone actually clicks on more buzzfeed bs or TMZ garbage. So the idea of great content is largely unsustainable from a business standpoint. Of course that won't stop anyone from crying about 'how far journalism has fallen' despite the fact that they don't actually read real journalism. [/QUOTE]
