What I Learned From NYT’s Amazon Story

Almost a week since the New York Times’s Amazon.com exposé, the piece is still riling people. Was it fair? (me: undoubtedly). Is Amazon.com unique? (me: yes and no).

Many technologists and tech reporters were dismissive, calling allegations of a “bruising workplace” of cut-throat competition and long working hours in Seattle old news. 

I had another reaction that surprised even me: There’s no denying the continued power of traditional media.
