for every moment in tumblr's history. the way the team has this works -- has changed usually over the last 10 years. the people on the team have changed as well. emily: tell me about selling to yahoo! did you want to sell or did you feel like you had to? ♪ emily: tell me about selling to yahoo! how did you make that decision, how did the process start? how did you start talking to marissa? david: the conversation with marissa was a fun one. it came at a time when we were looking for partners for strategic investment. we were in the process of raising money. more than just having an investor come in and cut us a check. actually show up with some technology we can lean on. resources, distribution, content that could make our network better. there were a ton of things to do with yahoo! but also, with marissa -- her vision for what she was trying to do with the company was really aligned with what we were doing with tumblr. where we were going next and what we would need. the other thing was, in marissa and in her team we wer

i attribute it to an nyu law student who started a tumblr, the notorious rbg. at first, i didn't know quite what to make of this because i didn't know who notorious b.i.g. was.

[ applause ] >> the answer, goodwin, i'm sure you know how important seniority is in our workplace. >> i'm getting a sense of that. >> so scalia was appointed some years before ginsburg so the opera is scalia ginsburg. >> so there's also going to be a biography of you in the near future called the notorious r.b.g., the life and times of ruth bader ginsburg by the msnbc reporter aaron carmen and there is a biopic, on the basis of success with natalie portman starring as you. are you in on these projects? do you know much about them? are you a

emily: john, you are behind some of the newer hits -- dropbox, instagram, tumblr. how do you fill the big shoes of david sze? john: what i learned is you probably don't try. instagram is a good example. i brought it in and people did not love it. emily: really? john: reid was not sure it would work. i believed in kevin and had enough affinity for the category and the product that i really wanted to do it. emily: why didn't reid think it would work? john: i don't know. he said some words, and who knows exactly what he meant? he thought it was interesting, but not huge. emily: is there a science to it, a formula to these things? john: with kevin, it took me a while to convince him to raise money. i chased him for the better part of six months. david: airbnb is another example. i was like, i don't get it. i don't get it. reid was on the other side pushing really hard to make it through. we think that dialectic, combined with respect for each other, allows us to get to good outcomes. emily: good that you own that. david: i have lots of things to own. 15, 16 years in th

you know, there's nobody up here sitting here from, you know, medium or, you know, all of these tumblr or other ways people are getting their information. that's also created some issues not only with outside media coming in, but also the white house just completely bypassing the media and going to people through their own social media channels. i think that the aspect that we maintain as beat reporters at the white house, is the accountability function. and that's one that is not -- that people that parachute in for a story are not in a good position to really do. you know, it's that one phrase that they've been using, you know, for a month and suddenly it disappears, and you notice it because you've been hearing it of day. it turns out there's a policy change underneath, you know, or it's the -- you know, the issue that you press deeper and, like, jim, you break a major, important story, you know, or uncover some type of shenanigans that, you know, are not likely to be uncovered by someone who is coming in because the white house is trying to reach, you know, a different segment of t

that's where that came from, from the tumblr page, and my publisher actually approached me from that.o i was fortunate in that aspect. >> thank you for that. it's a beautiful book. >> thank you. >> let's see, my -- honestly, i remember i sat in on a grad seminar that nell was teaching after i'd already published my first book. and one of the things she would always say to the graduate students was there's so many questions that have yet to be asked, right? if you wonder why isn't anybody talking about this, it's because no one ever asked the question. yo i need to ask the -- you need to ask the question. if you don't ask the question, it's not happening. that, for me, helped make sense of the work that i had done up until that point which the very first thing that i wrote was a journal article while i was still an undergraduate at spelman that was called writing themselves into existence. and it was about black women who had been freedom fighters and what it meant when they started to speak and write their experience over and against the history that i learned. so, again, i was an und
