The whole point of the venture is to inform people. The point of the memberships -- what I was talking about -- is to become sustainable to be able to fulfill that mission on its own without the need for those funders

I mean, the whole point of that is for The Standard to make its own money. And the pay is better than anywhere I've worked!

Good journalism is worth paying for! But I don't begrudge anyone if finances are tight, of course

Yes there are. I regularly work with them. KQED has folks in different sections, but I mean the news side. To my knowledge at KQED there was a photo editor and a staff photographer and that's it.

I haven't thought about it. I'll have to give it some consideration. It might depend on how it's used, it might be unilateral. But the funny part about the visuals is, even with the use of AI, The Standard employs more visual staff than I've had at any of my last publications.

Love that pink section. Are the 826 Valencia kids still featured there sometimes? Show's how long since I picked it up but now i'm jazzed to do so again. Grew up reading the comics section with my grandfather, doing "Hocus Focus." Then as I got older started reading the articles ...

Woooo thank goodness the beef is squashed. Excellent compromise, methinks. That reminds me, I need to re up my print subscription. Digital is cool but I miss passing the print sections back and forth with my wife on weekends more than I expected!

Hmmm Jesse on here I think Though I'm pretty sure there's always a human hand in those, even when AI is used. I'll let him explain! sfstandard.com/staff/

I can promise you I WONT do Mickey mouse impressions if you give up the Disney Plus sub 😂
comment in response to post
Ooooo see Disney Plus is a favorite of mine ever since X-Men '97, so I take that as a high compliment. I can pledge at least five minutes of Mickey Mouse impressions to the kiddos in recompense!

It really does. It's true. I get it! Is my analysis worth canceling Netflix for? Nah. Hulu? Maybe ... 😂

That one isn't my piece! But yes please, sub to read my stuff! I've got some analysis of Lurie's administration I think is worth the price of admission. And more on the way
