The Future of Music and Music Journalism in 2024
All Of It with Alison Stewart | Jan 23, 2024
Last week, Conde Nast announced it would fold mainstay music blog Pitchfork into men's magazine GQ, laying off a significant number of music writers in the process, including editor-in-chief Puja Patel. In a recent article, Atlantic staff writer Spencer Kornhaber describes the music site as one that "made an incredible effort to listen broadly, listen seriously, and champion the underdog." The uncertain future of Pitchfork highlights the uncertainty of music journalism in general. Kornhaber joins us to discuss the news.
