ICE CUBES: A.J. Daulerio goes to Gawker

Expect a rash of gossipy snarking locals to bother A.J. Daulerio, the one time Philadelphia magazine staff writer and ex-editor-in-chief of Deadspin who just got placed atop the Gawker mountain throne as its new boss. The Amber, PA-raised writer and editor whose handle was once found at Oddjack and the Black Table (where I wrote with him for a hot minute at the beginning of the 21st Century) was just moved from Deadspin with Tommy Craggs taking over A.J.’s slot at Deadspin. Media Bistro just posted that Daulerio was brought in to help grow site and — according to an internal company memo from its CEO, Nick Denton: “We need to release the full potential of the site’s excellent roster of writers — and fill out the team with new hires,” wrote Denton in an internal memo. “A.J. has proven himself as both developer and recruiter of editorial talent. That’s what the site needs right now. Hence the switch.”
