Michael Barbaro used to be a well-regarded political reporter at the New York Times. Now he’s a bona fide star, courtesy of The Daily, the paper’s podcast that launched early this year and instantly became a success.
Five days a week, Barbaro chats up his fellow Times reporters for additional context and insight about stories they’ve published in the paper. And increasingly, The Daily also creates its own, original reporting. It’s making New York Times stories, but ones you can’t read in the New York Times — you’ll need earbuds or a speaker.

Contributions are a key part of the future of Vox
Readers rely on Vox for clear, nuanced coverage that not only illuminates the issues, but poses solutions, too. And we rely on help from our readers: Advertising and grants cover the majority of our costs, but we count on contributions to help us close the gaps in our budget. In fact, we’re looking to reach 95,000 individual contributions before the end of the year. Will you make the next contribution right now? Our average gift is just $20 — and it goes a long way in helping us keep our work free. Vox is here to help everyone understand what’s shaping the world — not just the people who can afford to pay for a subscription. We believe that’s an important part of building a more equal society. Join that mission by making a contribution today.
