What the People Running Wall Street, Hollywood, and Washington Are Actually Reading
Today’s news cycle has been optimized for speed and scale, not depth or access. Everyone at the top is reading the same Bloomberg terminals, the same morning newsletters, and the same wire dispatches—and arriving at the same conclusions.
Meanwhile, the executives and decision-makers who seem to know things before everyone else have built habits around something different: journalism reported from inside the rooms where decisions are made, by writers who spent careers earning the trust of the people in them.
Puck is that kind of journalism.
Puck is the most impressive upstart news outlet I have discovered lately.

Wall Street
Bill Cohan spent years as an investment banker—at Lazard, Merrill Lynch, and JPMorgan—before he became one of the most authoritative voices chronicling the financial industry. His sourcing is unparalleled and runs deep in the institutions he covers, and his fluency with how deals actually work is on display in his bi-weekly private email, Dry Powder.
At Puck, Bill covers the key power brokers and most pressing storylines across the financial world: the internal politics at Goldman Sachs and Apollo, the revolving doors in Wall Street and Washington, and the undercovered events that reshape the markets before they become headlines. For Harvard alumni in private equity, investment banking, or corporate law, this is not merely background reading; it’s an essential briefing.
Hollywood & Entertainment Law
The streaming wars have reshuffled the economics of every studio and network, and consolidation has produced new power structures whose contours are still being drawn. In his industry-defining tip sheet, What I’m Hearing, Matthew Belloni covers this landscape with the precision of someone embedded within it, covering executive moves, deal chatter, and strategic decisions at Netflix, Amazon, Disney, and beyond.
Our veteran legal journalist, Eriq Gardner, approaches the same terrain from a different angle. Each week, he illuminates the legal infrastructure of Hollywood—from the I.P. battles and contract disputes to the courtroom fights that ultimately determine the new rules of the industry. For anyone advising clients in the media space or who came to Harvard Law with an eye on entertainment, Eriq’s work is required reading.
Puck was built on an unorthodox premise:
That there is an audience of readers—in finance, law, media, government, and the C-suites that connect them all—who want journalism that actually treats them like adults.
That philosophy extends across every beat Puck covers. In Washington, Puck’s reporting on the political and policy apparatus operates with the same insider fluency that defines Bill’s finance coverage and Matt’s work in Hollywood.
For a generation of Harvard graduates—students who will spend the next four decades moving through the institutions that shape American finance, law, media, and government—the question is not whether to stay informed.
It is how to get above the noise, past the surface, and into the rooms where the real conversations are happening.
Puck was built for exactly that.
