I will no doubt read and enjoy all your very good Nuzzi jokes, but I also want to say earnestly, so many of us (myself included) are on the verge of being pushed out of this industry and it's genuinely so dispiriting to see the worst among us, ethics-wise, get such preferential treatment.

The problem is, a lot of these jobs (at great institutions with great people!) do not pay enough to afford rent/childcare/savings if you are not straight out of college, have family wealth, and/or have a spouse/partner who makes a decent living. I hope that will change.
Yes, and: There are lots of reporting jobs at startup nonprofit local news organizations doing really important work outside of corporate ownership, for any journalists willing to consider living outside of the nation's three largest cities!

I do not and will never want to watch your podcast. That’s not a podcast, it’s a video interview. I will fight you on this.
(it will be a losing battle but also come on people why are we doing this? There’s a reason they are called PODcasts)

Q for you freelance writers and assigning editors: When you have print stories that are paid by the word (with an assignment with a word count that has a range, i.e. 500-600 words), have you usually gotten paid for the word count you turn in or the word count that actually runs?

That Google phone ad is so poorly thought out. You’re telling me a Google phone is cooler than a Nancy Sinatra song and a delicious vanilla soft-serve cone? Hell no
