@poniewozik @joshtpm Yeah it’s a very school-to-school, classroom-to-classroom kind of thing. My kids’ school has most of its teachers, and my 6th grader has most of his classmates. But the 8th grader had his class combine with another because they had so many absences today. — PolitiTweet.org

Downside: Athletic burns $$$ and needed a buyer or an investor - which is why deal is the same valuation as their last funding round. And $500 per subscriber is not cheap for the NYT. Needs to feel very confident they can boost Athletic’s numbers/reduce cost. — PolitiTweet.org

Upsides: Times gets an entirely new sub business it can bundle with NYT. And NYT bundle should help Athletic with its churn problem - subs who stop paying/reading when their team/sport isn’t playing. — PolitiTweet.org
