GAWKER IS DOWN
I REPEAT, GAWKER IS DOWN
https://archive.is/Cvvvf
>After nearly fourteen years of operation, Gawker.com will be shutting down next week. The decision to close Gawker comes days after Univision successfully bid $135 million for Gawker Media’s six other websites, and four months after the Silicon Valley billionaire Peter Thiel revealed his clandestine legal campaign against the company.
>Nick Denton, the company’s outgoing CEO, informed current staffers of the site’s fate on Thursday afternoon, just hours before a bankruptcy court in Manhattan will decide whether to approve Univision’s bid for Gawker Media’s other assets. The near-term plans for Gawker.com’s coverage, as well as the site’s archives, have not yet been finalized.
Sure feels good man.

Check out the owner of Gawker and its affiliates.
>Board of directors (Univision Communications)
>Haim Saban, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer - Saban Capital Group, Inc.
>Saban says his greatest concern is to protect Israel. At a conference in Israel, Saban described his formula. His three ways to influence American politics were: make donations to political parties, establish think tanks, and control media outlets.

This is the man that will likely fire all of the existing staff and relace them with more competent hands probably latinos and people of spanish origin

I am amused, but my sights are firmly planted on Kotaku & to a lesser extent Jezebel.
Kotaku is that rich kid who fucking lied about pushing you in the hallway even though everybody saw it, so you went to the teacher, and the teacher tried to spin it like it was your fault, so you went to the school board and after 2 years the teacher gets fired for having racy photos of themselves on social media so there's some small justice, BUT THAT FUCKING KID STILL PUSHED YOUR ASS IN THE HALL AND LIED ABOUT IT AND NEVER GOT PUNISHED GODDAMN IT

So, the only reason why we ever went after Gawker was because they were the parent company of Kotaku and as long as Gawker was around they would continue to fund Kotaku's shit flinging even if at a loss.
Now that the body of the hydra has been poisoned isn't now the opportune time to attack the head? maybe some well placed shitposting cat take down our true target now that they have been weakened and before they have a chance to get back on their feet. Maybe a sticky full of Kotaku sponsors and anything they have recently said that we can write a complaint about would be useful.

I'm okay with this.
We may mock Mexicans for being dirty liberal illegals, but at least they do love their vidya and animu.

I'm sure that statement factored into the extra forty million dollars awarded during the verdict. It's still amazing Univision bought them though.

I originally wanted to post the entire thing but this article is too damn long.
Tl;dr
Despite what burnouts,revoltards and shills say
The email campaigns did have a tremendous effect on gawker and helped contribute to the collapse that would take place 2 years later
Who knew something as simple as sending an email can bring down a media corporation
