[Ssc-dev] Fwd: Press Request about InformaCam

[Sam Gregory]

FYI - also in touch with CEO of Spiegel Online about possible testing
scenarios.

Harlo - if you can, also mention J3M and other broader elements.

Nathan/Harlo - in this light, just shared over talking points Matisse (cc'd
- pls keep her posted on media requests so that she can track overall)
worked up.

Thanks,
Sam
