The future of news with Jessica Lessin, founder of The Information


Listen Later

Aba is back to host this episode with Jessica Lessin, journalist, founder, and editor-in-chief of The Information. Founded in 2013, The Information breaks exclusive stories and publishes deeply reported articles about tech and startups.
In this episode we talk about:
* What attracted to her to journalism in the first place, how she got her start at the Wall Street Journal, and why the distortion of the news industry's business model by the internet led her to start The Information.
* What she's learned after five years running The Information, her insights on leadership, and the importance of resilience and self-awareness.
* And of course, her take on the big tech trends on the horizon, including the possibility of tokenizing everything and the future of Facebook.
We also discuss some of her favorite products, including Google Maps, Google Photos, and Asana, which they use extensively at The Information.
We’ll be back next week so be sure to subscribe wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts. Also, big thanks to AngelList and FreshBooks for their support. 😸
