Substack's CEO wants writers to publish what they want — even if it's wrong
CNN
Substack has taken advantage of a new model for the internet, where subscriptions for content are increasingly becoming the norm. The website is the current king of paid newsletters, where writers publish directly to subscribers without the standards of newsroom editors.
But as social media sites struggle to monitor misinformation, CEO Chris Best doubled down on the site's hands-off approach to content moderation.
"I think the magical piece is that the readers and writers are in charge, and you have this direct paid relationship," Best told Brian Stelter on "Reliable Sources" Sunday.
