Josh Quittner, editor of Business 2.0, stated in a radio interview for the show “On the Media” that he doesn’t believe that the decision to pay the magazine’s reporters based on how many hits their blogs receive will hurt their ethics.
Quittner also stated, “The beauty of this new medium is my guys don’t know who’s advertising on their pages. I don’t know who’s advertising on their pages. I doubt if anyone at CNN Money, which is the overall website that will be hosting us, knows who specifically is advertising on any single blog. It’s utterly pure. It’s utterly innocent. We all are in the business of serving a reading public, and it makes no sense to put together media that isn’t interesting to people.”
