 * Symbol question.svg Good article and good length, but the hook isn't well sourced. One source compares it to the Daily Beast (actually, mentions that others have compared it) but nothing says that it was actually inspired by the Daily Beast. A subtle difference, maybe, but significant. If we're claiming it's based on someone else's model, we should have a good source. The Daily Maverick sources don't mention it.
