| Anatoly Kurmanaev | “"Every journalist has an audience he caters for and in my case, it’s the financial community. You are a mercenary in a sense. You’re there to provide information to a particular client that they find important and it's not good or bad, it’s just the way it is...A couple of times from my experience you try to use, I wouldn’t call them 'cheap tricks', but yeah, kind of sexy tricks. Just last week we had a story about condom shortages in Venezuela. At the official exchange rate condoms were at like $750 dollars or something and the headline was something like ‘$750 dollar condom in Venezuela’ and everyone clicks it, everyone is like 'Jesus, why do they sell it for like $750?'" (We don't learn until the ninth paragraph of Kurmanaev's article that a pack of condoms actually cost about the same as it did in the US at the time.)” | Anatoly Kurmanaev | 2019 |
