@jason_kint The DOJ remedies are undeniably important - no argument there. But calling the EU angle irrelevant is a reach. Even as a private suit, it signals where publisher pressure is heading and shows this isn’t just a US story. The industry isn’t operating in a vacuum, and
neither is Google.
Also, appreciate the “tip,” though not every piece is built to cover every angle. Most readers can follow more than one development at a time.
@jason_kint Appreciate the perspective. Could I have focused more on the search remedy? Sure—and in hindsight, that may have added useful context. But it was an editorial decision to focus on what’s happening in the EU at this stage, especially given how the global implications
are starting to shape up differently. That said, if we’re going to publicly critique how stories are framed, I’d hope for a bit more consistency. It’s hard not to notice that some reporters get called out while others - sometimes covering similar ground - don’t, based on messages
