Kara Swisher and Walt Mossberg:
We are thrilled to announce that we are forming our own new and independent media company, Revere Digital, with a pair of respected investors and partners — the NBCUniversal News Group and Terry Semel’s Windsor Media. Revere will be operating news sites and apps, as well as a series of conferences.
First up is Re/code, a new tech and media news, reviews and analysis site launching today, with the same talented team we’ve worked with for many years at the former All Things Digital site we ran for Dow Jones & Co beginning in 2007.
As expected, it appears they took the entire AllThingsD reporting staff with them, and have added even more. Not sure what to make of the slash in the name.
(Mossberg’s first column for Re/code, “It’s Not a Church, It’s Just an Apple Store” struck me as a bit vapid, seemingly targeted at Artie MacStrawman.)
