No Mercy / No Malice Turns 10

Scott Galloway reflects on a decade of his No Mercy / No Malice newsletter, reading the anniversary essay that examines how the publication has evolved, what he's learned about writing and influence over ten years, and his perspective on the role of independent commentary in media and culture.

Editorial

Independent Commentary as Cultural Force
A decade of No Mercy / No Malice demonstrates that independent, unsponsored commentary can build influence and reach without institutional backing.
Writing as Craft and Discipline
A decade of weekly writing has revealed that the craft of commentary—clarity, timing, voice—matters as much as subject matter.
Attention Economy Shifts: Platform Dependency Risk
A decade of building audience through newsletters and podcasts highlights the volatility of platform-dependent reach—social media algorithms and distribution channels are not stable foundations.
Role of Contrarian Voice in Public Discourse
A sustained decade of often-contrarian commentary on tech, inequality, and business suggests that skeptical, independent voices serve a function that institutional media struggles to fill.
