Gawker Launches Consumer Site

Gawker Launches Consumer Site

By Guy Brighton on December 7, 2005

To keep their ad sales monks happy, Gawker Media have created a shopping site as Nick Denton admits, "Advertisers love shopping sites". To keep their editorial team happy, Gawker Media have let the team create a hate-shopping site that takes to task shoddy products and poor customer service practices.

We’re looking forward to the first post where they bitch about an advertiser’s product!
