Welcome to Touch Grass, a mini series where we explore the implications of being chronically online with the creatives who can’t escape it.
In this episode, host Lauren Meisner interviews Crystal Andrews, Reader's Editor at Crikey and founder of Zee Feed.
Throughout this conversation, Crystal talks about how she juggles an editor role while building her own media business, how complicated it feels to get viral traction off bad news, and what the future of journalism looks like amid the rise of ragebait content and AI slop.
