How Do You Build Something That Lasts? with Adam Gurri
About this episode
Adam Gurri discusses building a publication and the challenges of journalism today.
Adam Gurri, co-founder and editor-in-chief of Liberal Currents, joins us to talk about eight years of building a publication nobody paid him to make, and what happened when the world finally caught up. We get into how you raise half a million dollars from a community you built on trust, what it actually costs to pay yourself in New York City without betraying your principles, and why the most important job in journalism right now might be the one nobody sees: editing.
