Alex's First Subpoena
Last year I published a story in Pando Daily about the rise and fall of a modern weed dealer. Even though the story's accuracy has not been challenged, a few months ago the central figure in the story had me subpoenaed to reveal my confidential sources.
Pando explains what happened here. I'll be writing more about it soon, but for now I wanted to express my deep gratitude to Sarah Lacy and Paul Carr for their willingness to take on a story that carried legal risk, and their unstinting support for it since.
They've been publishing outstanding work on Silicon Valley in the Trump Era. If that's your bag, I hope you'll consider a subscription.
See you Saturday,
Alex
