- Valleywag was a Gawker Media blog with gossip and news about Silicon Valley personalities. It was initially launched under the direction of editor Nick Douglas in February 2006. After Douglas was fired, the blog was taken over by Owen Thomas. Thomas left in May 2009, and was replaced by Ryan Tate. Valleywag was the first to break some stories, such as the leaking of a Gene Simmons sex tape. It was criticized for broadcasting unsubstantiated and damaging gossip about people who are not in the public eye, such as a college intern who falsely called in sick to work. The blog ceased operating in February 2011, and the URL began directing to a Gawker page with a selection of technology industry-themed stories. In April 2013, Valleywag was resurrected under the editorship of Sam Biddle. In November 2015, the website was shut down again, as part of an effort to have Gawker become a politics site. (en)
