I just learned that Gawker’s Neetzan Zimmerman is the “Daily What” guy.
Am I the only one who didn’t know this?
Apparently, A.J. Daulerio hired him to post nothing but Daily What-style “viral” content on Gawker all day long to inflate the site’s page views. And it’s working.
So today, Gawker is basically a Gawker/Daily What hybrid, I guess. “The Gawker What,” if you will.
