Tons to dunk on here lol but fewer mentorship opportunities for young journalists is very sad and worrisome! The industry certainly isn’t going to improve when media execs would rather complain about early stage reporters being “less servile” (?????) than paying it forward

I’m interested in chatting with VCs who are also high-level athletes — I’m thinking former NCAA, but you could also be a die hard mountain biker or complete Ironmans. Who should I be connecting with?

Your newest work colleague might not be joining you at the team's next happy hour: AI agents are infiltrating the workplace, and one startup building those — aptly named Coworker — just cleared a big funding round to put "AI teammates" to work. businessinsider.com/coworker-ai-pi…

Really sad day in the BI newsroom - I think I speak for everyone when I say that “going all in on AI” while laying off a bunch of journalists is incredibly troubling. There are tons of great reporters out on the market now. If your newsroom is hiring, I’m happy to make intros.
