Anthony Scaramucci launched his new media venture on Monday, after months of posts about it on social media. What can you expect from the Scaramucci Post? The Mooch himself has no idea.

“We have no idea what the Scaramucci Post is and neither do you,” he told reporters in the basement of the Hunt & Fish, where he had a party for the new media organization, according to Vanity Fair. “But, we launched it today, and we launched with great fanfare and so we’ll have to see how the whole thing unfolds.”

Described as a “millennial-first media company,” the former White House communications director said it will deliver content on social-media platforms but has no immediate plans for a website. Scaramucci has not yet hired any reporters, according to Vanity Fair, but described The Post as a “middle lane.”

Scaramucci said that they are just experimenting right now, and that real entrepreneurs are “capital artists,” who never know what their canvas is going to look like, reports Vanity Fair. 

“Real entrepreneurship is a couple of people with an iPhone building something that people are going to stop at,” Scaramucci said, according to Vanity Fair.
