Sent an email last week but ICYMI:
The Beat covered the intersection of politics, policy, & ALL ppl of color. I built our newsroom from the ground up. We covered Congress, media & biz intimately & w/a team of 4-what others do with 100+. Black, Latinx, AAPI & Native American (1/3)
...readers & leaders had a home. If you were a political novice or connoisseur, our content was digestible. We transcended specific communities & INFORMED because journalism and journalists matter. We were three years strong and changed the landscape of political media. 2/3
Unfortunately, the common response I got when sitting across from VCs was doubt in our platform despite rapid growth & revenue. Hence, we officially closed our doors earlier this year. But I remain committed to reporting and covering the rising majority of this country. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✊🏾" title="Erhobene Faust (durchschnittlich dunkler Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Erhobene Faust (durchschnittlich dunkler Hautton)">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✊🏽" title="Erhobene Faust (mittlerer Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Erhobene Faust (mittlerer Hautton)">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✊🏻" title="Erhobene Faust (heller Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Erhobene Faust (heller Hautton)">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✊🏿" title="Erhobene Faust (dunkler Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Erhobene Faust (dunkler Hautton)">
