“Working for a small shop like ours, it’s easy to envy Pitchfork Media. With an expanded staff, accommodating resources and a revenue flow, Pitchfork churns out review after review, feature after feature, announcement after announcement, and so on. The FP skeleton crew busts their ass to bring you daily essays, recipes, photo journals, lists and of course, reviews, all (we hope) with the signature FP seal of quality. This isn’t to say their editors and writers don’t work hard or that they don’t employ quality standards, it’s just that the economies of scale are clearly in their favor. What is more difficult is to give credit where credit is due.”
