Earlier this year, the editors in chief of Gizmodo, The Root and Jalopnik—David Ewalt, Vanessa De Luca and Bob Sorokanich, respectively—also left the company.
As part of the layoffs, G/O Media will also be reorganizing its editorial structure, according to Spanfeller. Going forward, editors in chief will report into an office of editorial oversight in an effort to bring more accountability to them and their teams.
“We want to be nimbler in how we address the many opportunities that we have to serve our daily, weekly and monthly visitors and we want more focus on the KPIs that give us a sense of how we are doing on a site-by-site basis with our core consumers,” Spanfeller wrote. “Some of this involves a flattening of our organization.”
