Jim VandeHei's New Media Venture: Axios
It's going to be WAY better than all other media companies.
The subscription-based news company from former Politico CEO Jim VandeHei has a name: Axios.
Vanity Fair reports that the word Axios means “worthy” in Greek. The site’s mission statement is “Media is broken—and too often a scam,” which is unintentionally hilarious. All media is broken and a scam…. Except Axios! Looks like Axios will be as self-important as we all had hoped.
Axios will launch in late January 2017, with a tech-focused newsletter by Dan Primack coming earlier. Another newsletter, on the business and politics of health care, will be written by David Nather.
