Substack’s next target: Local news
Substack is known for recruiting high profile writers to leave the big name publications and start their own newsletter businesses. Now it wants to recruit writers you haven’t heard of, and get them to cover local news. Cofounders Chris Best and Hamish McKenzie talk to Recode’s Peter Kafka about their plans — as well as criticism and controversy their startup has kicked up in the last year.
Featuring: Chris Best (@cjgbest) Co-Founder of Substack
Hamish McKenzie (@hamishmckenzie) Co-Founder of Substack
Host: Peter Kafka (@pkafka), Senior Editor at Recode
