Subject: Goldman Sachs, Ozy Media and a $40 Million Conference Call
Gone Wrong
The digital media company has raised eyebrows for its claims about its
audience size for years. Then came the strange voice on the phone.

This past winter, Goldman Sachs was closing in on a $40 million
investment in Ozy, a digital media company founded in 2013, and there
seemed to be a lot of reasons to do the deal. Ozy boasted of a large
audience for its general interest website, its newsletters and its
videos, and the company had a charismatic chief executive, Carlos
Watson, a onetime cable news anchor who had worked at Goldman Sachs
early in his career. And, crucially, Ozy said it had a great
relationship with YouTube, where many of its videos attracted more
than a million views.
