Harvey Levin, Executive Producer, TMZ (Code Conference 2016)

TMZ founder Harvey Levin talks with Recode's Kara Swisher and Peter Kafka about the business of fast-paced reporting on the entertainment world.

Levin also defends the practice of paying for photos and videos, although he says he can't remember the last time TMZ paid for a news tip.  Learn more about your ad choices.
