In their words
What was actually said
On featured, you actually get early access to hero queries. If you're not wanting to sign up for two platforms, you can just go to Feature.com. We have early access to hero queries on featured because the limitation of hero is journalists are often looking for a source fast and they might request something and then the next hero newsletter goes out three, four hours from now.
