I think there's probably more of a demand for high-quality journalism now than there's ever been, but I definitely think people's ability to appreciate it isn't there. Plenty of people would like to be able to read a 5,000 word essay, but simply can't.
And that's why I think focusing on the written word itself as the vehicle for high-quality journalism is a mistake. I don't think that's the only way to do it.
