How did the Athletic invite the Maryland and Rutgers beat writers to get fired before Washington?

The Athletic is a startup that is probably in the game of writing about NBA drama bullshit.

Or maybe it's just a startup that is failing.

Was a startup that got bought for $500MM by the NYTs so they could say they had a bunch more “subscribers”.

Then they proceeded to run it like their own business and we are seeing the results…

People pay to read The Athletic?

With all these writers getting fired today, I guess the answer is "no."

I cancelled my sub yesterday
