Man, I think – The type of journalism that we do is a little bit different than perhaps commentary journalism. And I'm not – I am creating business models as I speak to you about how to make this sustainable. I got sued last week by one of the guys I busted in the Pentagon. It's not cheap.

And if they don't go to jail, then I'm going to have serious questions about who our prosecutors are. But I'm trying to make journalism sustainable, and I'm trying to create business models for it.
