By quitting, Deadspin's staff aren't just principled, they sent a critical fuck you to every private equity ogre that desecrates great publications. The only way 2 stop it from happening is stopping them from being able to turn a profit. Long live Deadspin. They were the realest
It's what we did at LA Weekly. If you buy a publication to dismantle it & exploit its legacy to grift gullible advertisers, the only response is for the staff to quit, freelancers to stop freelancing & their "investment" is suddenly worthless. It's the only thing they understand.
Let's remember some guys: Jim Spanfeller and Paul Maidment.
They were despicable mustard-stained morons whose legacy will be ruining the best site of the decade and losing every dime they invested. There's a special place in hell for them.

Thank god for all the graduates of the barstool school of economics and lobotomies in my mentions explaining the way that profit works.
