salon is an OG 90's-era west coast internet property; resistance to collective solidarity isn't surprising in the least

salon can't have that much money, maybe at one point when it was the future of journalism, today it's a miracle it's still around

How to stop writing for The Atlantic
The piece that got him blackballed is pointless and vapid, ftr.

couldn't have happened to a more deserving writer imo

lol at him characterizing his incredibly nasty and smug remarks in that piece as "i mentioned in passing..."
anything that means less of his shitty and worthless writing on the internet is a good development
― (The Other) J.D. (J.D.), Monday, 30 November 2015 18:57 (eight years ago) link
I was trying to think of anything he'd written that I could remember reading prior to this - came up empty.

Al Jazeera America has removed the satirical piece originally posted on this link, which included commentary on our company that we believe was not appropriate given its imminent closure.

surely if anything al-jazeera's imminent closure is what made it appropriate

Wow these three sites have been ILX’s collective punching bag. This thread is just seven years worth of bitching. Why is it every time a site gets redesigned everyone hates it?

The Atlantic is cutting 68 staffers - 17% of the total. Imagine having a staff of 400 and not being able to produce anything better than The Atlantic.
