Will the last one to leave turn out the lights?

The departures from G/O Media kept coming Tuesday, with the resignation of the digital publishing group’s editorial director, Paul Maidment, who had been with the company since June.

He told the staff he was out, effective immediately, in an email. His departure followed a week of chaos during which the entire editorial team resigned from Deadspin, a sports website operated by G/O Media.

“It is the right moment for me to leave to pursue an entrepreneurial opportunity,” Mr. Maidment said in the email. “I admire the journalism that you produce and the unique voice that is otherwise missing from mainstream media.”
