“Our backgrounds in print journalism helped us be able to trust ourselves, look at what we like and assume our readers like that too.” [04:00]

“There’s no way to post once a day with long stories unless you have a big team. The internet today requires that you have content constantly churning.” [08:00]

–Monica Khemsurov on After the Jump

“We’re still known for the content behind the images – so that’s been nice. Even though we produce shorter stories [than we used to] they’re still full of content.” [09:00]

–Jill Singer on After the Jump
