gawker's coverage of groupon has gotten so bizarre
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 2 November 2011 21:24 (twelve years ago) link
savage the company incessantly for months, republish a multiple thousand word story about how groupon has made it thru the rough times and is really going to be profitable and that the CEO is actually pretty nice and okay to work with and then not less than 24 hours later run a story titled "who the hell is going to invest in groupon"
v schizo

i know its not yr fault max (and yr work is as ever top notch) but this really is not true

i mean compared to like 3-4 years ago maybe. but the comments section has been horrible for years!
― max, Wednesday, 2 May 2012 14:01 (twelve years ago) link
The comments have been pretty horrible for at least the last couple of years, maybe longer than that. It's like they're all auditioning to write lines for Two and a Half Men.

Here at Kotaku, we interview many wonderful video game creators and lots of powerful gaming executives. What we don't do—what we're going to do a lot more of—is interview the people who simply play video games.
To fix that, Kotaku video editor Chris Person and reporter Evan Narcisse ventured to downtown Manhattan shop Video Games New York and began asking regular gamers what they think about issues in and around video games.
We start now with a gamer from the Bronx named Robert who talked to us about his idea of strong female characters in games. More »

The latest Anonymous dump (http://pastebin.com/nfVT7b0Z) of 1,000,001 Apple Devices UDIDs made me giggle:
to journalists: no more interviews to anyone till Adrian Chen get featured in the front page of Gawker, a whole day, with a huge picture of him dressing a ballet tutu and shoe on the head, no photoshop. yeah, man. like Keith Alexander. go, go, go. (and there you ll get your desired pageviews number too) Until that happens, this whole statement will be the only thing getting out directly from us. So no tutu, no sources.
