andrewsullivan.com: Not a Professional Enterprise

In a December 9 post, “Pledge Week Update,” Andy said, “Our goal was to have a core supporting readership of around 5,000 or more. If we get that, we can make this a professional enterprise, pay our expenses, hire an intern, and pay me a real salary.”

Today, in a post called “The Results,” Andy says he received “payments” from 3,339 people.

Since Andy fell 33% shy of his stated goal, I guess that means andrewsullivan.com is still not “a professional enterprise.”

Quod erat demonstrandum.
