Anyway Facebook will someday decide people should be sharing runic texts or something. (At which point the media will ditch all the video and podcast folks and start recruiting classics majors from Hampden College.)
Someone told me yesterday that millennials prefer to communicate in emojis. We have come full circle, from Hieroglyphics, to the various alphabets, back to Hieroglyphics. I use emojis too, but prefer words 98% of the time.

Very intrigued by the Athletic -- wish it every success. Subscriptions appear to be the most promising economic path for publications these days. (DISCLOSURE: I work for a subscription-oriented publication so of course I think this.)
That being said the ad models are a bit confusing these days. Podcasts seem to be supported by like the same six companies. Video is about tricking people to "watch." So we'll see if it works for The Athletic. Certainly people are willing to pay for recruiting news, and Stanford's Rivals site serves a fair bit of traditional beat reporting along with the recruiting. So I imagine the model is scalable.

Things can change, but an interview with David Lombardi from earlier this month describes him as the new owner of The Bootleg.
I can only guess it's something like a franchise now under the 247 Sports/CBS entity? Lombardi talks a little about how he's going to be taking over once football starts and is considering hiring someone to do some of the writing/reporting so he can be more of a manager.
