The Verge managing editor Kara Verlaney writes about its new newsletter offerings.
Verlaney writes, “First, we’re introducing Regulator by Tina Nguyen. Regulator is focused on the battles between Big Tech and Big Government — from the juicy palace intrigue to the devastating consequences of their political games, written by the author behind The MAGA Diaries: Life Among the Fanatics, Extremists and True Believers that Created the Modern Right. Each Tuesday, Tina will expand on how tech and politics have crashed into one another, giving us a fuller picture of how the two forces are fundamentally changing our world. The first issue of Regulator will be sent on Tuesday, August 12th.
“Second, we’re announcing The Stepback, a weekly breakdown of one essential story from across the tech world. Each Sunday, we’ll bring you vital analysis from a rotating cast of writers from every corner of the Verge extended universe. Edited by Marina Galperina, The Stepback is built to dig in deeper on the biggest stories and topics of the moment — whether it’s the chaos at Tesla or a confounding TikTok trend. The first issue of The Stepback will arrive on Sunday, August 10th.
“Lastly, The Verge is thrilled to announce a new partnership with Lowpass by Janko Roettgers.
