The back story on our WSJ access: I was interviewed by Neiman Lab (a journalism foundation), and they asked about how we were structuring our media partnerships. I told them that we had ongoing discussions with several media outlets, but that they were all confidential.
So instead, I offered a hypothetical: we'd love to work with the WSJ, for example, to bring left-leaning readers to their right-leaning site. The day that Neiman Lab published their interview, I got an email from the head of partnerships at the WSJ, asking to talk about doing a partnership together. It's not always true, but sometimes: "ask, and you shall receive"
