Jesse Oxfeld Finds Work Without Bad Fiction Interlude
Less than a week after we published our landmark study on the career evolutionary chart of Gawker Media writers, former Gawker editor Jesse Oxfeld has presented us with an important new piece of evidence: with no mediocre fiction experience whatsoever, Oxfeld has landed a position as the online editor of New York Magazine. Examining the Gawkolution chart, you’ll see this represents an unprecedented leap forward — Oxfeld’s found a way to skip a step in the evolutionary process.
Could we be looking at some sort of mutant super-writer? Our bet is on some sort of gamma-ray mutation at the hands of a leaky microwave at Denton’s place. But maybe we’ve just been looking at that Rampaging Colbert cover for too long.

Dammit! And I had my fingers crossed for a crappy and self-indulgent pulp novel before he got a REAL job.
