About this episode

Julia and Dylan discuss the implications of Google's changes on search traffic and the recent media acquisitions.

Julia and Dylan get into the potential final death of the search traffic era, courtesy of Google I/O, and what it means for digital publishers and news media at large. They also discuss the week's buying and selling frenzy — New York Magazine and BuzzFeed both changing hands — and Barbara Peng's exit from Business Insider.
