Ok, that I file under "an inability to play well w/ others" (admittedly a broad definition). But you've long had the star power to strike out on your own when desired, which is fine. Yet those of us who haven't had long, celebrated outlet-hopping careers don't have that option...

...and while I have no problem w/ your, or Matt's, or Glenn's choices, I am vexed by the irresponsible, irrationally exuberant & breathless way media & tech reporters are presenting substack as a magic solution to the hellish landscape that I and far too many others are stuck in.
Your issues with "the msm" aside, you, @sullydish, can walk in and out of it as you wish, while those of us w/o your (or Matt's, or Glenn's) connections / pedigree are left with our faces pressed against the glass because the best way to get a job is still to already have one...
...and too many media critics and reporters are fawning all over your built-in audience and ability to generate subscriptions as if it proves that substack is a viable model for anyone other than people like you instead of focusing on real problems with the media business.
