Can Journalism Be Fixed by One Email a Day? (ft. Tim Huelskamp, 1440)
In a world where algorithms amplify outrage and newsfeeds reward noise, 1440 Media has quietly built something radical — a daily newsletter that promises “all your news, none of the bias.”
This week on FUTUREPROOF., Jeremy Goldman talks with Tim Huelskamp, CEO and cofounder of 1440, about how a 15-person team grew to reach over 4 million subscribers without chasing clicks, outrage, or political extremes.
Tim shares what he’s learned about:
- How 1440 found “white space” in a crowded media market
- Why being unbiased is both a superpower and a branding challenge
- How 1440’s ad model bucks media’s obsession with vanity metrics
- Why curiosity—not content—is the new currency for growth
- And what The Free Press sale reveals about the shifting trust economy
If you’re tired of doomscrolling and looking for what’s next in digital publishing, this conversation offers a blueprint for rebuilding trust, curiosity, and connection—one inbox at a time.
