from Techdirt · host Techdirt
Between Elon Musk's proposal for a website ranking the credibility of journalists and Tim Draper blaming the collapse of Theranos on the press (not to mention Peter Thiel's attack on Gawker), it feels like there's a war brewing between Silicon Valley and journalism.

This week, we discuss the tensions between tech and journalism, and what will come from the proposals to address it.
