Quanta and BigThink are such great sites, pumping out high quality science journalism.


BigThink, ironically, is sponsored by the Charles Koch Foundation.


Can you cite this? All I see is that BigThink is owned by FreeThink [0], and FreeThink appears funded by Bedrock Capital and MaC Venture Capital [1], neither of which I can tell are associated with the Charles Koch Foundation [2][3].

That said, I've spent ~5 minutes on this, so I certainly missed something.

That says nothing about sponsorship. At best, it implies a vague partnership, which is fundamentally different.
