From inside Gawker: “We’re finding out who got laid off by looking at the list of disabled Slack accounts. They’re doing it one by one instead of a group thing. Literally people getting DMed to come into a conf room. And then their Slack is killed.”

Layoffs are currently rolling through Gawker.com and Jezebel (although, at that site, writers were given the courtesy of a phone call from their editor).
