"Though it has paltry revenues and just 20,000 registered users, the company pays only $8,000 a month to rent its offices in San Francisco and has received $8 million from investors."

$8 million? And all they can get is 20,000 registered users??? You've got to be kidding me.

"The company raised $35 million three years ago and, thanks to financial prudence, has $20 million in the bank."

$5 million burn rate a year for failed company is prudence?

All reading this sort of coverage does is make me feel that anyone wanting part of our company will have to pay through the nose for it.
