> Media has always been a core part of Reddit’s user experience and infrastructure

We know that reddit was a forum whose main purpose was to be an alternative to digg, there is no need to rewrite history. They could be honest and say that they want more money instead. Anyway, redditors won't leave as we've seen in the past which means that they have guaranteed eyeballs.

I wish good luck to their comment-editing CEO and their future slop machine. It will be a funny thing to watch on such a large scale.
