The 9 Rules guys had apparently pushed hard for him to join, and he was always a little detached about it. Being a smaller site, we were the opposite -- I pushed to get into 9 Rules, so I was sad to have to leave.

They had to choose, and they chose FM. Why they would get rid of Om Malik is beyond me. He's got to be one of the bigger sites in the network. I imagine this also has something to do with the rule they can't be a part of any other content networks.
