Mediaweek, January 9, 2006:
“We’re never going to accept an ad from a domestic car manufacturer,” Gawker Media’s sales director, Christopher Batty, boldly declares during a discussion about his zeitgeisty, blog-based Internet company’s advertising revenue. “We hate American cars, and our readers do, too.” He also adds that big pharmaceutical companies are not on their call list: “They don’t want us, we don’t want them — all our readers are healthy and beautiful.”
Gawker, today:
Healthy, beautiful, and, apparently, old.
