This Is Why Digital Media Is Winning - Business Insider: "The four of us were the only news outlets, as far as we saw, to bother going to the courthouse to get the document so our readers would know, as soon as possible, what Kleiner was saying in response to Pao's charges. . . . We didn't see anyone from the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, or the San Francisco Chronicle. No one from CNN or the local broadcast channels. . . . In between running to and from the courthouse on the day the Pao filing came, we also broke stories based on extensive research, public corporation filings, and exclusive tips. You wouldn't get those stories anywhere but on Business Insider. We know that's a major reason why you keep coming back, and we promise to deliver more.
At the same time, we quite honorably picked up on stories broken elsewhere and did sharp synthesis and smart analysis from others' reporting. It's not either/or. It's both/and. And it always has been.
All that's changed is who's doing it, and who's doing it best.
This is why digital media is winning.
Because we are doing the work of journalism."
