Haven't seen this discussed yet on the boards. I know many of us are subscribers, or have been at one time (I was, but didn't renew a third time due to a decline in quality content).
Some key points from the below reference articles:
Sports subscription website The Athletic is holding off on hiring new writers as it discusses the possibility of a merger with potential business partners, sources told OutKick.
The Athletic has recently held talks with news website Axios about a potential merger, per reports.
With or without a business partner, a “shakeup” is “soon” on the way, one investor told OutKick, citing The Athletic’s lagging renewal rates and a subscription base that’s not strong enough to cover its current salaries and travel expenses.
