I don't know why Wired is doing the best reporting on Musk's bullshit (or why the big papers appear to be doing almost none), but we should reward good work where it happens. Subscribe to Wired! - ThreadSky

Do your damn jobs and at least try to keep up with Wired

They have been listening to Silicon Valley flim flam for decades, so they have a partial immunity to the techno babble from business guys pretending to be engineers.

If you’re an Apple News subscriber you get access to Wired FYI

Probably because Tim Marchman is the editor at Wired now

Conde Nast seems to have their heads on right. Dunno why, but I sure appreciate it!

I started paying for Vanity Fair because of Molly Jong-Fast and other high quality coverage. I may go for the whole C.N. bundle soon.

"conditions of anyonimity" is one reason. If you can't cite sources readers should wait for story to be proven through multiple outlets. This is how it's got to be now.

They've been doing better, more accurate, reporting of Trump's statements for the better part of a year (when I started paying attention) than most legacy media. Accurately sharing terminology Trump would use, etc. while NYT & WaPo would trot out sanewashing, downplaying drivel day after day.

Thanks for the callout - just subscribed. Never thought that it, Rolling Stone, and Teen Vogue would be the most unflinching sources of critical political coverage but they've all been incredible

Agree. Better to give $10 to Wired vs another Democrat politician that don’t do anything but talk.

Maybe cuz a lot of tech people have Musk’s number. They see thru his bullshit, maybe have even been impacted by it. They hear the gobbledygook that comes out of his mouth when he’s cosplaying a *Genius*.

It's very cheap too! I wish they had an option to pitch in more to support the work they are doing!
