Why would someone choose you over Musk?
How would you ensure that in 5 years you will not sell out for big $$$
Not trying to be a troll, just genuinely asking as the answers may help someone who actually has the resources/time
Why choose X over musk?
- X isn't erratic and unpredictable/capricious
- X has a solid track record of working with stakeholders and partners for win-win relationships
- X doesn't lead one to discuss enforcment of morality clauses in contracts
- X cares about best-practices for all stakeholders, including employees
I could go on.
At this point, almost ANYONE with a decent resume could be considered a better steward than musk
So many people do only editorialism but call themselves journalists. Journalists who do great investigatory pieces are often independent or bounce between publications frequently. Lots of influencers posing at journalists to obtain a veneer of legitimacy. More money than ever influencing the content of what is being written about. Lots of uncredentialed civilians tweeting newsworthy things. Lots of 'news' services writing articles entirely sourced via tweet.
I think the journalism industry is so blurry and chaotic right now, it's hard to know who is worthy of platforming.
My hope wouldn't be to give people platform, so much as give media people meaningful connections. Who knows, though. I've not thought about it much. I would also leverage other unique advantages I have, in terms of other businesses, to increase the chances of those connections being built.
