Pitchfork Editor-in-Chief Puja Patel (Disclosure: I worked with Patel at Spin, and many of my Defector colleagues worked with her at Deadspin) will not be making the transition to GQ, nor will many of her colleagues, some of whom announced their layoffs on Twitter.
Beyond gutting Pitchfork's staff, it's not clear what exactly being brought under the auspices of GQ will mean for the publication. But it feels safe to assume that it will become a smaller, dimmer version of what it was before it became the latest victim of the ongoing implosion of music journalism.
