The Consumerist,
is yet another website which was developed by the Gawker Media Group,
there doing quite well aren’t they? Anyway, Joel Johnson was the
editor-in-chief although the site was originally the idea of Nick Denton
and Lockhart Steele both of whom are highly ranked within the Gawker
Media Group. They decided to sell the consumerist to Consumer Media LLC
when they were offered around $7 Million. I think I may have sold for
that price too!
