@LukeAlmighty Yep. Gawker had around 10 full-time unpaid interns writing blog posts for them while running a series about "Unemployment Stories" and "Fight for $15".

@caekislove
to be fair, we had that in high school....
2 weeks total, and they were, so our school could get space for entrance exams for newbies.

And all the requirements were a letter that we attended. So one of them was me literally sitting in a back of a shop for a week.

@LukeAlmighty These interns had to commute to New York City, work 8-10 hours in an "open office" and then go drinking with Nick Denton's grabby pervert friends after work. All for "Experience" and "making connections". 🙄
