They survived the 90s by subtle marketing to gay/lesbian people.

Jalopnik was founded in 2004, I think their 'original staff' fully cycled out over 10 years ago and they've had at least 4-5 distinct batches of contributors since. They've launched a lot of journalist careers and it's been a quagmire of clickbait since Spinelli left and Okulski figured out how to make a profitable car publication while all the print magazines almost died before hiring Jalopnik writers. It's always been the case that they have about 2 writers on staff worth reading as long as it's not an article they're forced to write because they drew the short stick on covering whatever lame thing everyone has to write about this week.

I liked Kristen Lee but it seems she just went to Business Insider so credit to her. Her and Stef Schrader, journalists that own cars that they actually track earn that extra shred of credibility when it comes to writing about enthusiast cars imho.


And Subaru + LGBT is a textbook lesson in why alienating potential customers is fucking stupid.
