Inside the Buy Side: Catching Up With Gabe Greenberg of GABBCON
We keep hearing about how badly the digital media industry needs more conversations between the buy side and the sell side... so we decided to start one ourselves.

Adam Moser of Hulu shares thoughts on how to adjust the discussion to keep key ideas from being lost in translation.
