Biz journalist Callaway starts climate news website

David Callaway, the former CEO of TheStreet.com and editor in chief of MarketWatch.com, has started a new website covering climate change.

The website is called Callaway Climate Insights, and it will have a weekly newsletter. Callaway is the founder and editor in chief.

“Callaway Climate Insights journalists will interview leaders, report from around the world, unveil new investment strategies, and bring the full weight of a lifetime of journalism to bear on telling the stories of this new era,” wrote Callaway on the website.

Callaway has moved to the San Francisco Bay area to focus on the new venture. He is using Substack Inc. as his content system. It is a new company that has developed a platform for individual newsletter writers.

In a message, Callaway said, “I’ve been wanting to do this for almost 10 years and now seems the right time. As we’re watching right now, humans can come together when the stakes are high enough. A great story for journalists and journalism.”
