We upgrade URZ to a Buy; we see an entry opportunity with investors.

The only school that let me in was U.C. Santa Cruz, which is where I went. They didn't have a journalism program, so I took sociology, which is the closest thing to journalism.

I have no regrets about launching Salon. For the life of me, I can't imagine doing anything else.

There are not that many new media brands you can say that about nowadays.

Most Sunday magazines, with the New York Times as an exception, are kind of sleepy, weekend service vehicles to move living room products.

Pressure only makes you sick. You won't get anything positive out of it.

I just do what feels right. I think the great thing about getting to do what I do is that you can try out being a different person without having to screw up your life to do it.

I used to tell everyone I met to be an artist..... I don't do that any more.

The age demanded an image Of its accelerated grimace, Something for the modern stage, Not, at any rate, an Attic grace.
