Does anybody else have a feeling like it’s a New Coke situation?
Drive it into the ground, then a year later come back with a shadow CEO and say “We’re back and better than ever”…profit.
How is that supposed to work?
Nope. I think it's a "billionaire who isn't half as smart as he thinks" situation. It's his shoddily built submarine, ready to fail catastrophically at any moment.
After all, has "New Coke" ever worked for a website? Once those users have found somewhere else, they're never coming back.
Get people to start missing it like Twinkies.

Why do brands care so much what their ads appear next to? Its not like people associate the ads with the content.
