The first blog of the post-Deadspin era at Deadspin was published at 2:30 p.m. on Friday afternoon, a nondescript submission by a freelancer who then, in the course of an hour, went from being a “scab” to a newfound symbol of the resistance against G/O Media.
The post, which speculated about two NBA players beating each other up, was not assigned by G/O, did not undergo an editorial process with the writer, and went online largely untouched from the draft that was filed early Friday at around noon.
In a conversation with The Daily Beast, that freelancer, Alan Goldsher, a 53-year-old musician and writer living in Chicago, revealed those details and added that he has no idea how much he will even be paid for his efforts—G/O Media never proposed a fee, nor did he receive a contract.
