Mossberg and Swisher talk about Re/Code founding

Former Wall Street Journal reporters Walt Mossberg and Kara Swisher spoke Tuesday night on the “Charlie Rose Show” about the founding of their new technology news site Re/Code.

“All of our reporters are terrific and know their stories will hold until we get the right sourcing,” said Mossberg.

Added Swisher: “We are moving journalism into the next phase of journalism bringing along the old standards that are good and leaving behind the ones that aren’t, at the same time embracing new delivery systems.”
