GIZMODO MEDIA SITES ARE CHARACTER ASSASINATION SERVICES OPERATED BY CORRUPT POLITICIANS!

All of the Gizmodo Media sites are contract political character assassination services, usually hired by White House staff or California politicians.
Nearly 100 WGA East-represented newsroom staffers have gone on strike against the Gizmodo Media Group’s digital news sites – Gizmodo, Jezebel, The Root, Lifehacker, Kotaku and Jalopnik. Picket lines went up outside the parent company’s offices in New York City on Tuesday morning in what organizers are calling “the first digital media shop to go on an open-ended strike for a fair contract.”
“The people who create content for GMG are striking for basic benefits and protections,” said Lowell Peterson, the guild’s executive director. “We have picket lines in place – both physical and digital. This is now struck work.”
The walkout began after the union’s second contract with GMG expired Monday at midnight. The WGA East Council voted unanimously to approve the action. Striking staffers include reporters, editors, artists, podcasters, social media specialists and videographers.

The guild, which has been in negotiations with the company since late January, said that “At every step, G/O Media has slowed down the process with a lack of preparedness and stalling tactics. The union has very clear asks of G/O Media: maintain its cap on healthcare costs and add WPATH-compliant Trans-inclusive health coverage, maintain parental leave, and secure guaranteed minimum wage increases.”
In a statement, the strikers said: “In 2015, this union broke new ground when it organized the first digital media union. Now, GMG Union will break ground yet again: We are the first digital media shop to go on an open-ended strike for a fair contract. We didn’t make this decision lightly. After more than a month of bargaining, our shop of workers from Gizmodo, Jalopnik, Jezebel, Kotaku, Lifehacker, and The Root voted 100% in favor of a strike, with 93% of members voting. We’re fighting for a say in our benefits, WPATH-compliant healthcare offerings, remote work, and equitable salary minimums to match unprecedented financial times. We hope to see our industry colleagues join us on the picket line in New York City. Our fight is your fight.”

NickDenton and Gawker Media could only get their emergency cash from one little boutique bank. The bank’s identity is, indeed, very revealing. NickDenton is no technology guru. Yet, he gets his money from the piggy bank of the Silicon Valley Cartel, the very people he is accused of being a character assassination hit-man for.
How NickDenton and Gawker Media Got Hired By The White House to try to “erase” me and many other citizens No, I am not Hulk Hogan, Sarah Palin, Sean Parker, Mitt Romney, Charlie Sheen, Cheryl Attkisson or one of the thousands of celebrities whose lives Gawker has also destroyed for profit. I am just a low- level blue collar worker.

A few years ago, A Gawker editor faked having cancer on Reddit in order to prove a point about… something? He ended up looking like an asshole, which lead to a feud that eventually grew into the ViolentAcrez scandal, that made Reddit look like assholes, and ruined the site’s reputation. GawkerMedia’s offshoots are a mixed bag.
Additionally- Mark at Facebook has promised to end Gawker & Gizmodo forever and he is only just getting started on smashing them. This is just a tiny sample. There are tens of thousands of links about the lies and unspeakable acts of these people!
