Telling that the guy called them 'clients'. "They might be long dead but we can still make money off them!"

Well this is certainly ghoulish.
“This opens up a whole new opportunity for many of our clients who are no longer with us.”
That’s not a real quote, right? Please tell me that’s not a real quote. The whole part about someone being represented by an agency after they are dead is clearly satire, somehow this Onion…
I feel like I’m in crazy town because this article contains words like “supports” and “hope” and not words like “ghoulish” and “insane” and “should never happen under any circumstance” and “CMG Worldwide should be razed to the ground”
There is no way of knowing if Dean would have wanted to do this movie. There is no way of guessing what acting choices he would have made. There is no way of capturing his soul or even the soul of his character with technology.
Isn’t the guy that tried to kill Gawker a private equity guy?
On the other hand, he’s telling you up front that he’s terrible. Any woman who still chooses to get with him is dumb. He’s over here festooned with red flags!
Men who acknowledge the hatred women have for them and their shitty behavior are slightly better than men who think they are beloved and have no faults.
Mellencamp sounds terrible. Men who say they’re children really are awful. Not awful children, just awful men.
Without Splinter, without Deadspin, without so many of the wonderful writers who’ve been chased out by Wharton douchebros and management-by-consultant...I really have no reason to hang around these parts anymore. I guess until David Tracy gets shown the door for writing about old rusty jeeps instead of, I dunno,…
Fuck these motherfuckers.
So is Great Hills Partners a real company or is this some shell game bullshit?
So is Great Hills Partners a real company or is this some shell game bullshit? And Simon Anderson can suck my whole ass. Lauren: I have loved you and your writing and this site for lo, the 5+ years I’ve been here, but this is some bullshit. Call this my swan song I guess, cuz I’m done.
If you haven’t noticed, Jez has been ‘hollowed out’ (s/o to maraleia) in the last year. Lauren is one of less than a handful of writers that have been on staff for longer than 14 months. Deadspin’s death was quick and dignified comparatively.
I’m “meh” on Grande, but that costume is FANTASTIC. “Eye of the Beholder” is an absolute classic “Twilight Zone” episode. You simply cannot talk about the cultural impact of the series without mentioning that episode. Kudos to Grande for knowing a classic when she sees it; she’s got excellent taste in “Twilight Zone”…
This really fucking sucks. I come here for all kinds of news, and deadspin is part of my news. Or was. I appreciated their willingness to show how sports and the wider world fit together. One can’t just ‘stick to sports’ if one genuinely loves sports because SPORTS ARE MORE THAN A FUCKING GAME, AND SO ARE UNIONS. ✊✊✊🖕
Ariana’s twilight zone mask is perfect! That’s one of my favorite episodes.
Not as done as I am with the corpse fuckers Jim Spanfeller and Paul Maidment. Jim Spanfeller and Paul Maidment will be spending Halloween digging up your relatives and molesting their remains. Jim Spanfeller and Paul Maidment are avowed necrophiliacs.
Long live Deadspin...
You guys standing in solidarity with your former co-workers? It won't be much longer til they come for you.
Sorry. I know this is not the forum,but I’m gutted over Deadspin.
