Feminist news website Jezebel gets the axe
2023-11-11
I coulda bought Jezebel.
Yes, but why would you want to?
[Axios] G/O Media said Thursday that it's suspending its female-focused brand Jezebel and laying off 23 editorial staffers as part of a broader restructuring.

Why it matters: The cuts are the latest in a string of changes G/O Media has made to its portfolio in recent years amid volatility in the digital media industry.

Catch up quick: G/O Media, the parent to niche consumer websites including Gizmodo, Kotaku and The Root, laid off 13 staffers in June. The company sold its lifestyle website Lifehacker to Ziff Davis in March.

Last month, Axios reported that the company was trying to sell Jezebel.

Details: In a memo to staff Thursday, G/O Media CEO Jim Spanfeller said the company will restructure "a good number of our teams (eliminating some positions while adding some others), rethinking our editorial management structure and making a very painful change to our portfolio."

#5  I fear you are exactly correct EP.

Not long ago, I phoned the wife of a recently departed old friend to pass along a kind word or two. She immediately launched into a tirade of a local man who dropped by for a visit and sat in her lawn chair a bit too long. The implications were quite obvious. I wished her the best and discreetly ended the call.

Scratched that one from my contact list.

#4  About ten years too late. The damage has been done. They taught a generation of women to hate men and view any man who wants a traditional family as a hate crime. This won't change anytime soon.

#3  Most of the trans want to be traditionally female, while feminists don't want to be traditionally female. Go figure.

#2  With all that new trans nonsense, hardcore feminists seem almost sane.
