More Gawker Media news coming across the wire, err, feed reader. Simon Owen’s Bloggsam has published an internal memo from Gabriel Snyder regarding Gawker hiring a new West Coast Editor. From the memo: Ever since Defamer was merged into Gawker earlier this year, I’ve been looking for the right person to hire in L.A., so I’m pleased to announce someone who was worth the wait: Richard Rushfield is joining Gawker as its new West Coast Editor.

CBS Interactive has recruited blogger Richard Lawson from Gawker, according to Silicon Alley Insider who also has a quote from Lawson: I’ll basically be doing what I do now, just probably fewer posts a day plus some actual reviews and stuff. I’m excited/nervous/gassy. All that. Richard Lawson is one of the key entertainment writers on Gawker , and apparently averaged 2.4 million pageviews per month which is top of the bill according to the SAI story.

Gawker Media Traffic Sees 17% Increase In First Five Months 2009

One of the good things with having your stats open in public, like Gawker Media has (using Sitemeter by the way), is that you can get others reporting on how much you grow. Like Simon Owens, who blogs at Bloggasm , and has been analyzing the stats, finding that the Gawker Media network ( BloodCopy not included , of course!) increased by 17% during the first five months of 2009. For the first five months of ‘09 the blogs showed a combined 1.4 billion page views, compared to 1.19 billion in the last five months of ‘09 — a jump of over 200 million. To conduct this survey I compiled page view data from Gawker Media’s Sitemeter stats from each of the blogs. The number of page views does not represent the number of unique visitors to a site, but rather the number of times a page was loaded. More numbers and analysis by Owens in the Bloggasm post . I guess Gawker Media could just link it, sit back, and save the money on that marketing rep who usually does these things.

The Gawker Media Demo Reel
Last Updated on Monday, 11 May 2009 01:44 Written by Thord Daniel Hedengren Monday, 11 May 2009 01:44
If you’re a blog network like Gawker Media, mixing rumors and news with celebrity stalking and snarky commentary, you need a demo reel to go with it. Luckily, enough people have spoken out against the network blogs, and they have been featured in a fair share of popular culture TV shows (you missed the Californication Gawker mugshot, guys!) to make for an interesting video
