As someone who works for Verizon Media, this doesn't surprise me. I'd be curious to see how it's broken apart. Most of the deadweight was already jettisoned (Tumblr/HuffPo), so most of what's left actually makes money.
Lots of good engineering teams here. Hope all the tech isn't just tossed.
Same, wonder if it's all of it or just pieces.
I wonder if Verizon will be selling the standing before the FISC court that it acquired in 2016.
