Hasn't Henry literally come out and said we aren't for sale? So shall we add that to Ornsteins list of wrong clickbait exclusive pieces? Thanks I forgot that example.
Klopp literally mentioned the Athletic specifically due to more of it's journalists publishing lies. I'll take Klopp's opinion of their trusthworthness.
I understand the difference thanks, The Athletic has never made money, it loses money, reducing your losses by a third means you're still making a loss.
Do you work for them? You seem very defensive.
The vast, vast majority of media publications lose money unless they have a high-revenue sidebar like events and virtually none make money from subscriptions alone - it's 2023. The Atlantic for instance has some of the best long-form writing on the internet and has never made a profit. It has no bearing on the quality of output which is why it was a ridiculous thing to say, especially when a) attached to a link that undermined your claim about it 'getting worse' and b) the money they spend is literally going on journalists.
As for the other, Ornstein reported the existence of the sale pack, something that was later confirmed with the caveat that we were apparently looking for an investor rather than a buyer. Since we haven't found one, we'll have to guess how true that is. I'm sorry Ornstein sometimes writes things you don't like, it doesn't make what he writes clickbait, whatever you think that means in this instance. Klopp has never mentioned The Athletic by name, he refused to answer a question from James Pearce at a press conference, apparently
a case of mistaken identity.
And no, I don't have a connection to The Athletic outside of subscribing. I just felt the need to correct an incredibly dumb series of posts.
