Nicholas Carlson

from Press Club · host Mediaite

Mediaite editor Aidan McLaughlin speaks with former Business Insider top editor Nicholas Carlson about his departure from the news outlet and his new venture: a video media start-up called Dynamo. They also discuss a troublesome challenge that has emerged for publishers in recent years, one that Carlson faced frequently at Business Insider: extraordinarily wealthy people using lawsuits to silence reporting they don’t like. One of those figures, the hedge fund billionaire Bill Ackman, went on a frenzied crusade against a reporting accusing his wife of plagiarism — a crusade that put Carlson's job in jeopardy. Carlson speaks about why he really left Business Insider, what he plans to do with Dynamo, and the future of the digital media business.
