Look Who Wants to Be Ricochet!

 

I was just reading an article in the Wall Street Journal about BuzzFeed, and its trials and tribulations over the past couple of years (losses, layoffs, etc). Now, I know very little about BuzzFeed, except for what I hear Rush Limbaugh say about them, and have never been to the website. Here are the last two paragraphs of that story from Saturday’s Journal:

The company also is seeking to create a membership model, with an eye on creating niche social communities for people with shared interests. “We believe people might be willing to pay a little bit to something if it reduced the amount of spam, trolls, and bad actors”, he [CEO Jonah Peretti] said.

You don’t say! Gee, now where could we find some people who would be interested in paying a little something to avoid spam, trolls, and bad actors?

    Actually, the other group that wants to be Ricochet is The Dispatch, Jonah Goldberg’s new venture. They are trying to set up a similar member feed section, etc.- but basically, they are “The Bulwark”, but at double Ricochet’s prices.

    How they think this would be appealing, I don’t know. The wishful thinking of TDS zealots.

    Oh is that what that is. A home for the NTers.

    All 135 of them.

    What are they going to do after January 20th, 2025?
