Denton has announced that he is adding a birdwatching offshoot to his media empire. That's right, a news site for hip birdwatchers. The new site will be called Auker Media.

This is weird. Interesting but weird and it bothers me on some level but I can't articulate why.

Am I wrong in thinking this is indefensible from Gawker? What's the upside to outing a college student who was in a pageant a couple of years ago for doing some shitty amateur porn for a few bucks?

Still angry about this today. I like Jalopnik and Gizmodo but I think it's time to start avoiding Gawker Media properties as much as possible.

check avclub.com if u disagree
editors are vital obviously but i love the look of a writer writing against editors addressing himself to and being answered on-site by his own editor

I always feel duped when I land on a Gawker sister site that has that ~earnest~ tone that appeals to the self-proclaimed "nerds" that dudes like Max and Sam make fun of on the daily

really did you REALLY think sam biddle thinks bullying should be "brought back"?
― Rallsballs@onelist.com (stevie), Tuesday, 6 January 2015 22:24 (nine years ago) link
do you think sam biddle's issue with nerds is that they like star wars figures or that when people suggest video games should be held to the same standards as other artforms they form weird little cliques and persecute women?
