An ex-employee of New Media sites has decided he wants to expose what is happening there.

Intereting reading. He's tearing it all apart.

But, just check out the Twitter feed @exmediaman. He just started yesterday, I think.

"Viral Media" is all White People. Sometimes sites let black journalists write for them, but they never really feel included.

@TheAtlantic is basically a front for a lifestyle/advertising company, as if WiedenKennedy started news site. All their content is sponsored


quote:

@Slate staffers are not very discreet about their sexual indiscretions with one another.

4/10 at @Buzzfeed take adderall, concerta etc. Trying to hold a conversation with them off of gchat is like playing checkers on a horse


quote:

@Gawker writers, @hamiltonnolan in particular, really disliked @neetzan because he took the model to its logical conclusion: farming @reddit


quote:

Several former colleagues say they hope the #Malaysia flight isn't found for a few more days so they can squeeze 15-25 more #viral headlines


quote:

A very well known politics writer (more than 50k followers) has a long history of passing genital herpes to young DC reporters.

@Vice is basically being run by early twilight-years Marlon Brando.

The secret to all the sites I worked at was one thing: @reddit


quote:

@HuffingtonPost, and this isn't really a secret, is a complete shite show.

Surprising number of under-35 writers take Viagra.

Meh, nothing really earth shattering there. None of that stuff is that shady.

This dude, whose résumé apparently encompasses Gawker, BuzzFeed, The Atlantic, Huffington Post, and Daily Mail Online, has enough dirt to bury the entire Internet


Hyperbole much?
