For any, like myself, wondering "Who is Ben Welsh" ?
Hello. My name is Ben Welsh. I'm an Iowan living in New York City.
I am a reporter, an editor and a computer programmer. My job is to use those skills, together, to find and tell stories.
I work at Reuters, the world's largest multimedia news provider, where I founded the organization's News Applications Desk. In that role, I lead the development of dashboards, databases and automated systems that benefit clients, inform readers, empower reporters and serve the public interest.

Bourdieu. The field has structure, the structure has logics, the logics shape what counts as a publishable story, a promotable journalist, a credible source, a "balanced framing".
The ownership relationship was always load-bearing? The journalism in this case was a tenant, I highly recommend that people promote forms of independent journalism?
I think it's the fivethirtyeight of of historical significance, and Disney is one of the largest and wealthiest companies on the planet. So it's just kinda like "whoa, this is stratospheric negligence" or "whoa, what is the reason for this... assuming they are not idiots?"
If I wanted to get the complete WARC archive of 538 - how do you do this in a friendly way? No interest in history tracking, just want the last available version from Internet Archive.

~ https://palewi.re/who-is-ben-welsh/Can't believe Ben Welsh is not Welsh, and FiveThirtyEight has nothing to do with Wales
Couldn't figure out why archiving FTE aricles matters, but a quick search yields:
> Thousands of FiveThirtyEight articles seemingly vanish from the internet
https://www.editorandpublisher.com/stories/thousands-of-five...
And discussions here on hn:
ABC News has taken all FiveThirtyEight articles offline https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48152553
Disney erased FiveThirtyEight (article by Nate himself) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48197703
This is because whoever owns Fivethirtyeight now (ABC?) deleted the whole archive of articles on the site.
Don't we need more than an index of Archive.org because whomever controls the domain could robots.txt these out of existence if they wanted to?

Please, say that again in comprehensible English.

EDIT: dude have you heard of the s in https, http://johntantalo.com gets flagged.
I'm seeing a lot about this. What makes this situation different than any other website going offline?

Love Ben but title can simply be: Index of FiveThirtyEight articles preserved by the Internet Archive
