The Wall Street Journal Login (Almost) Every Journalist Knew. Matthew Zeitlin, Buzzfeed:

For an industry filled with insatiable loudmouths and gossips, media-media was kept impressively quiet, shared among reporters, but not so widely that it became public knowledge. Reporters outside of the Journal’s Midtown headquarters were so tight-lipped that many WSJ reporters had no idea that media-media even existed.
