Differentiate or Die

Axios vs New York Times - Differentiation Wars

24 Jun 2025

Description

In this engaging podcast episode, host Derrill Merrill and Cameron Olds, a classically trained journalist, compares media giants The New York Times and Axios. They contrast the 125-year-old New York Times, known for its in-depth, paragraph-heavy reporting, with Axios, a 2016 startup founded by Politico alumni. Frustrated by traditional news’ lengthy, ad-heavy formats, Axios pioneered “Smart Brevity,” delivering concise, scannable articles tailored for modern readers. They explores how this differentiation strategy lets Axios compete with industry titans, while suggesting they better highlight their unique approach.
