Michael Kinsley, former editor of Slate, says of Salon that "If we had pissed away money at the rate Salon had done, Microsoft would've shut us down a long time ago... If they were as frugal as we are, they'd be thriving. The only reason people are paying attention to Salon is us. Otherwise, they are forgotten. At every stage they have mocked us, then they followed us."
