I'm Alex Kisielewski. I've spent 18 years working across journalism, media, and technology. I'm currently VP of Partnerships and Business Development at Ghost.org, the open-source, non-profit publishing platform powering 30,000+ publications, including 404 Media, Tangle, and The Mill. Collectively, they earn over $130 million a year from their readers, with zero payment fees.
Journalism is an industry in transition. Every Thursday, I write essays and shorter notes trying to make sense of what's changing in journalism, what matters, and what it means for newsrooms and the people they serve.
