Awful Announcing
Amidst projections for a $30 million drop in revenue this year, Maven has laid off nine percent of its staff, including six percent of the remaining editorial staff at SI.
Around 15 SI staffers (who mostly work for the print magazine) are already represented by the NewsGuild of New York. SI employees are now looking to form a wider union with that organization that would see around 80 newsroom employees represented.
Three days after the initial "Sources: USC to dismiss Clay Helton" story hit Sports Illustrated channels, that story has been removed and replaced with an apology from the Maven author.
The Maven will now be publishing SI under an agreement with new SI owner Authentic Brands Group.
