Pando failed as publication with last article from June and before that for a year or so all articles were written by Sarah so no money for journalists. It's not so much selling publication as selling web site with residual google traffic. I am sad - I was subscriber at one time and attended a few events. Lots of good content a few years ago. Good journalism is expensive and Sarah failed to make finances at Pando viable. Now competition for subscriber dollars is intense with theinformation, business insider, digiday, etc and ad dollar will never support niche publication with no unique audience like Pando. |

I'd dispute that. I followed for a few months but the incessant valley navel gazing dried up my interest pretty quickly. It wasn't a great publisher in the great scheme of things even with Lacey's TechCrunch credentials. And to be honest I'd also stopped reading TechCrunch et-al back around 2012/13 even before she left. Maybe at the age of 52 I've outgrown this kind of tech "journalism".
