Washington Post - Gawker readers were presented with some startling news on Thursday
afternoon: The popular Web site's mostly 20-something staff is planning
to join the Writers Guild of America. The post, entitled "Why we've decided to organize,"
came after a meeting of about 30 writers that convinced de facto leader
Hamilton Nolan there was no way the decision could remain under wraps,
so he might as well announce it first.
"It would be easier to
have this conversation internally," he wrote. "But Gawker Media is, for
better or worse, a company with a rich history of gossip."
