Company Info

Defector

Defector Media LLC is a worker-owned and operated media company that focuses on sports and culture. Launched in September 2020 by former Deadspin staff, the company operates as a collective, with equity shared equally among its founding members. This unique structure allows for democratic decision-making, requiring a two-thirds staff vote for major changes. The company primarily creates content, including articles, commentary, and analysis, which is available to subscribers. Defector Media operates on a subscription-based model, generating revenue through its loyal subscriber base rather than advertising. Since its inception, it has attracted a significant following, with around 30,000 paying subscribers by October 2020. The company emphasizes transparency in its operations, including salary transparency among staff members.
