The Ozy Media meltdown has a lot of lessons. As the reporter who caught them buying junk traffic in 2017, I'm biased. But I see it as a perfect, cautionary illustration of Paid versus Earned media. So: a 🧵 on why Ozy failed as a paid media company — and why it matters.

This what we've been building towards and it's baffling that Google's press is creating fanfare when we all knew it was coming. It's in our DNA and nothing net new. Ultimately, performance will be what 1P data is judged by, but that's where we'll win.
