How Mic Chooses the News for Millennials

Digiday wanted to find out how millennial editors choose the news for their millennial audience. So we stopped in at Mic for its daily editorial meeting.

Every weekday at 9:45 a.m., the young staff at Mic make their way to the kitchen with open laptops. They congregate around a small island as editorial director Slade Sohmer kicks off the morning news meeting. About a dozen editors pitch stories for that day.
