How does that matter if the owners just fired all the writers and replaced them with an AI? I see little to no integrity at a publication owned by some big group calling shots like this. These are Nick's bosses, so uhhh... he either listens or quits.

    Yeah if they run it that brutally, it's going to go bad.

    But usually there is a lot of difference between how sub-companies are treated both based on how they are currently doing and how strong-headed their management is.
