A few moments ago I received an e-mail from Maureen "Moe" Tkacik, informing me that she needed to rescind her previous acceptance of Radaronline's Senior Writer position. Apparently Gawker Media impresario Nick Denton, panicked at the thought of losing her (for good reason!), made her a rather attractive offer that will move her over to the company's flagship site and provide her with more creative freedom and fewer of the onerous tasks she is currently responsible for at Jezebel.
It is, on every level, a disappointment.
