Why limit the search to journalists? If my understanding is correct, Arrington didn't have any prior experience in the news industry before Techcrunch.

Its not strictly limited to journalists, but its focus will be news, and we're looking to restrict the authors to high quality writers.

While I expect to widen the platform to all comers in the long term, we'll be very careful how we do it. It'll be our equivalent of reddit's search for how to do subreddits well, and Facebook figuring out how to let everyone in.
