It's often said that the Trump years are exhausting because it's just one thing after another with this guy. That's true. Definitely true. What is perhaps less well known — and also true — is that Trump's presidency has overlapped with what seems like one change to the journalism industry after another, and that itself is a challenge of its own.
We had a standard all-staff meeting today and one of the subjects was the changing ways in which people get the news. It's a story that everyone in and out of the news media is familiar with to some degree. People read less. They watch more. This is one of those chaotic periods in which the technology undergirding how information gets distributed creates winners and losers. TPM has come out of these transitions a winner before and we intend to do so again. Each and every time it's been because we had an audience that supported us and believed in our simple but effective mission:
1. Do good journalism 2. Be a good place to work 3. Make enough money to do both
We hope you'll consider a membership to help us conquer this next challenge.
