Today in "Go Woke, Go Broke": Deadspin

For those that might not remember, Deadspin did a piece on how this kid...
...is a racist.
Deadspin senior writer Carron Phillips blasted the 9-year-old boy for wearing “black face” along with the sin of "cultural appropriation" for wearing a headdress, going so far as to call it an example of "racism and hate". The author then chastised the NFL for not “speaking out” against the child.
How's that working out? Spectacularly.

I actually wonder how much of this was due to a lawsuit, and how much was due to journalism being a dead industry

And the writer never apologized for it. Just doubled down on stupid.
"Phillips acknowledged our email almost immediately in a now-deleted tweet, saying he could explain how 'red and black face paint is just as offensive as blackface.'"

Another one bites the dust. At least currently, nothing is coming in to replace this crap this is shutting down.

yes all the idiots who post the garbage got fired, but what about the owners? they wanted them to be that way, and hired those people, so what happens to them?
did the owners make bank, or lose money on the sale vs what it was worth?
thats the question i have, i want to see the money behind this shite cost them money

No idea, but the fact that every single employee was terminated at the same time and with only a 30-minute notice makes me think they are going to want the exact opposite from future employees.

Don't the Chiefs have a guy/mascot that they use?
What about FSU? They have a guy dressed as an Indian. Why are those racists, but she goes after a kid.

This is what’s weird. You buy a company and then fire everyone? What are you keeping, just the name? It isn’t like they have some great infrastructure.

SFP and HHTM are now looking for a new rag to read. It's a sad day in their corner
