The other deleted piece was Laura Wagner’s report on how G/O was running its websites into the ground. I think it’s entirely possible that they even read the blog they were deleting. One is that Spanfeller himself, or someone else whose only principle is Number Go Up, deleted the blog. Two is that someone more junior, who is not fully committed to NGU, deleted the blog. The simplest answer is usually the right one, of course: the person who deleted that blog did not think about it at all.
