“but for me, no author’s byline here commands as much attention as yours.”

Every time I see her name, I know 1) this is going to be good, and 2) whoever the story is about is in deep shit.

I was trying to figure out a way to say something like this about halfway through her post, but there’s no way I could say it better than this. Thank you Diana.

I’m so old wedidn’t even have the JC Penny’s catalog. You’d just go the the JC Penny store and whack off

This right here is super disheartening. It has been the elephant in the room since before #metoo. I would have hoped that this current post-Magary’s “The Reckoning” iteration of Deadspin would have been the first to offer up their skeletons.

Keep asking. I’ll try to make the point too, in a reasonable but direct way. I can understand why they wouldn’t want to respond in a comments section, but they really should talk about this.

I’d add that they need to address this post in particular.

I’ve had two burner accounts banned from Deadspin because I’ve seen writers in the comments and directly responded asking about this. Never vulgar or anything... but always on a piece about sexual assault. Simply asked if they were ever going to report on the accusation again Greg Howard. Comment deleted and banned

Damn right. Seeing Diana’s name, it’s like, shhhh, time to stop goofing off, shit’s about to get real. And it’s fucking great.

It’s the glue that binds the dick jokes together.

Seriously. I have been waiting for something - anything - since the Shitty Media Men list came out. I was deeply disappointed to see Greg Howard there, one of my favorite-ever Deadspin writers, and now I can no longer read his work. Hello, Deadspin? What say you?

Seconded.

Literally could not agree more, particularly with this:

no author’s byline here commands as much attention as yours.

maybe he should just run for fucking president?

Preach. She’s been a great part of Deadspin.

but for me, no author’s byline here commands as much attention as yours.

Just want to say thank you for all your work, especially your incredible investigative pieces year after year. Deadspin is a great place for dick jokes and making fun of Austin Rivers, but for me, no author’s byline here commands as much attention as yours.
