I didn't know this.

Their last two CEOs - under the rubric of Gizmodo which itself is a division of Fusion Media Group - were South Asians.

It's pretty stunning to see how the employees of this organization act towards their new head. I'd say brave, but I wonder how many of them are trust fund babies who simply don't need the money, therefore can afford to be arrogant. If I was an editor at these Missing Link Media companies, I'd be having a big cup of STFU and hoping to stretch out my salary and bennies in a collapsing industry as long as possible. This Sameer guy reeks of a hatchet man.


Madeleine Davies, Jezebel’s managing editor, said her site had been “hobbled” for months by staffing issues, and said she was concerned that her reporters would jump ship if there was continued uncertainty.

“You’re about to enter a tornado of nightmares," she said, to laughter in the room. "I think you're beginning to see a picture of how angry everybody is. You said that Univision went into this deal knowing what they were doing. And my challenge to you is prove it. Because literally every initiative has been a disaster. There is no trust in this room for Univision. You have a lot of work ahead of you and it's not your fault, but you have a lot of work ahead of you.”

Davies better wake the fuck up, she's about to be unemployed in a rapidly shrinking industry.

Bwahaha, I realized the article is from 2018.

Davies is now at a site I never heard of, "Eater.com". And she's a joker faced Libby, as you might expect.
