r/Journalism on Reddit: One of my favorite websites (part of the gizmodo umbrella) seems to have died quietly but I can't find any reporting on it?
April 16, 2024 -

I'm a huge fan of gizmado's food website the takeout. Stories were being updated every day and there was always new content. But about 2 months ago around the time that dead spin was sold off the new content got really sparse. If they had announced layoffs or a sale of the takeout I would totally get it but none of that has been reported. The current front page of the takeout has a story written March 26th on it. Any idea how I can figure out what's going on?
