Yeah, but it’s a shell of its former self. The site got bought by EW Scripps in 2016, and shortly after, Jack O’Brien (who basically built the site with Jason Pargin) left. Then like a year after that Scripps fired almost every full time staffer, before selling it off to another parent company. As far as I know the small handful who survived the purge all left of their own accord eventually… I don’t think anyone at the current version of the site was there before ~2018.
