Fair warning, Silicon Valley: Dan "The Panda Guy" Raile is now reporting full-time for Pando
Last year, we shared with readers our plans to get Pando profitable, and ensure we'd no longer be reliant on finding venture capital funding to keep growing.

Back in February, Sarah wrote a long “State of Pando post, announcing our new Speaking Truth To The New Power tagline and sharing our plans for the Pando’s third year. Since that time, a lot has happened: some exactly according to plan, some absolutely not. Six months later, this seems like a good time to update you on both.

Ted Rall joins Pando. This is going to be good.
As you might have noticed, Team Pando has been killing it over the past few weeks -- with Mark Ames' coverage of the Techtopus, David Sirota on General Catalyst and Charlie Baker, James Robinson on Indiegogo scampaigns, Carmel DeAmicis on Uber's background checks, Yasha Levine at the NRA convention, Michael Carney's phenomenal Bitcoin coverage and on and on.
