Let’s Remember Some Blogs

Deadspin, Gawker, The Awl…what else?

The news over at Deadspin, where a corporate ghoul named Jim Spanfeller is apparently hell-bent on turning the site into some kind of Sports Forbes hellscape, is grim.

This fucking sucks.

Remember when blogs were good? Let’s remember some good blogs together.

  • Deadspin
  • Gawker
  • The Awl
  • Atlantic Wire
  • Take the Handle
  • Grantland? (Kind of a blog, right?)
  • The Hairpin
  • Splinter
  • Warren Reports
  • The Toast
  • ThinkProgress
  • Blog for America
  • Danger Room
  • Fire Joe Morgan
  • Harper’s Magazine

What are some blogs that you remember?

FACT:

Mother Jones was founded as a nonprofit in 1976 because we knew corporations and the wealthy wouldn't fund the type of hard-hitting journalism we set out to do.

Today, reader support makes up about two-thirds of our budget, allows us to dig deep on stories that matter, and lets us keep our reporting free for everyone. If you value what you get from Mother Jones, please join us with a tax-deductible donation today so we can keep on doing the type of journalism 2021 demands.
