Deadspin sold off, editorial staff to be laid off immediately

The left-wing sports outlet that defamed a young Chiefs fan earlier in 2023 has been sold off to Lineup Publishing from its owning company G/O Media and the entire editorial staff will be fired.

According to a report from Axios, the G/O Media CEO Jim Spanfeller made the announcement to staff on Monday.

The layoffs of the editorial staff will include Carron J. Phillips, who in 2023 defamed a young Chiefs fan, saying that the child wore blackface when he really wore Chiefs' colors of red and black for a game.

Carron J Phillips, who defamed a child for wearing face paint, is now unemployed after the collapse of Deadspin

to appeal to future employers, he lists "pulitzer nominee" on his bio
