It's a bad day to work for Gothamist or DNAinfo

Congrats on your new union! You’re all fired.

Joe Ricketts, circa 2012:

To be fair, the article says they were losing money.

_But in the financially daunting era of digital journalism, there has been no tougher nut to crack than making local news profitable, a lesson Mr. Ricketts, who lost money every month of DNAinfo’s existence

I’m surprised they would vote to unionize knowing the company was operating at a loss.

I used to love DCist. Man, this sucks.

Apparently they deleted everything and now people are suing them?

I’m only tangentially paying attention to this, so don’t quote me on that.
