Deadspin Employees Leave En Masse After Executive Editor Tells Them To Stick To Sports

I was just about to say, I wonder how long it takes them all to unite under a new site.
Likely as long as it takes to get significant funding. I fully expect them to spread across the internet instead of reforming.
Congrats on registering to just self post your own BS twitter meme
Ehh, just because the companies were overvalued doesn't mean they weren't making money. Deadspin by all reports is (probably now was) profitable.
The idea that market valuation = economic viability is bullshit, look at the beyond meat fiasco this week.
I don't doubt that this is in an attempt to make MORE money, but as usual its without having a clue of how that market works. Look at all this hubub for a fucking sports page, that should tell you about how passionate the audience is. You should be looking for ways to monetize it without alienating them. Like my point was, what's the use of buying a unique property only to make it as generic and as flavor of the month as other sites? We've been going in on Barstool but obviously they've found a unique (shitty) angle to make them stand out in the crowd, what's the use of a neutered deadspin that reads like yahoo sports?
I also am playing the worlds smallest violin for the private equity firm who now owns it and guaranteed has put an albatross of debt on top of these properties but now feels compelled to churn out a quick buck to earn their management fees
I mean, just because your boss says to shoot yourself in the foot doesn't mean you do it. You tell your boss they're an idiot and find a job that doesn't tell you to shoot yourself in the foot. And look what's happening.
So you're telling us you're a shitty person doubled by a corporate bootlicker?
OK, welcome on the board I guess!
Lmao your single post on this forum is just ognna be you signal-boosting your own shitty meme? Alright then.
I dunno, that guy seems like the sort of person who'd shoot himself in the foot just for the hell of it. See, for example, his post.
*extremely 'post on your main account' voice* yo twitter dipshit, why don't you aim the gun at your good foot
It's not accurate. It's reductionist and juvenile but maybe shedding this strange "everyone is stupid but me" attitude is your first opportunity to grow into an adult.
the boss's order was in violation of their previously agreed upon union contract but go off
The unionization of online media companies can only be a good thing. Best of luck to all those who resigned.
I miss the good old days where the alts and trolls actually tried to be ambiguous. Now they basically shoot up a flare asking for a ban.

No surprise someone who tags The Quartering proudly might not be smart enough to understand the things he's saying or analyzing. You're a shite red mage, tbh.
As far as I'm aware, the removal of the blog post regarding the autoplay video ads was the actual breach of contract, not the "stay in your lane" orders.
I get my news from multiple sources, Jeremy included, yes. I try and do my best to get sources with different viewpoints and opinions. When there's more than one side to a story, it would be a benefit to hear all sides and extrapolate what the truth is from somewhere in the middle.
Except the part where you openly sob about things leaning left and expose your true intentions quite easily and openly. Nobody's fooled except you. I might recommend hanging up the sword before you fall on it.
Goodbye, sweet Mage. We barely knew ye.
At least they can focus on that Mixer career now!
EDIT: Like clockwork, folks.

I walked through some mud on the way home if you want to lick my boots clean while you're already at it.
They just need both sides to a story which is why they also follow Vic Mignogna, Boogie, AlphaOmegaSin and TheQuartering.
It's really about ethics in gaming news.
Mods: follow the simple rules, don't do the thing
Troll: ignores and does the thing
Mods: you're banned
Troll: *pretends to be prosecuted and crucified*
Holy fuck at quoting your own cringe ass tweet.
lmfaoIt may be a meme, but it's pretty accurate to how this all started.
It's a dying art, they used to take weeks to integrate and be more subtle.
4 posts in to the account, what a loss
Also, the corporate bootlicker brigading on Twitter is out of control. They're clearly searching "Deadspin" and responding to every tweet.
No one engaged with his original tweet about getting banned, so he had to glom onto some other miserable turd's ban!
EDIT: I won't boost anymore of his boring solo-crying, but these are just too sad not to share.
I can only assume it's for cheap likes/upvotes but he doesn't seem very popular so I guess it ain't working out.
If that's the same guy he's suspended now. Fuckin' amazing.
He's not suspended; he protected his account, which causes the tweet to be unavailable publicly.
An unusual case of self-owning.
