You don't need me to tell you that games journalism is a tough business. Shortly after we recorded this episode, Game Informer laid off nearly half of their staff. Brian Crecente, a co-founder of Kotaku, Polygon, Rolling Stone's Glixel, and Variety's gaming coverage has been through those same ringers, and they never get any easier. But picking yourself back up and starting a new games media website doesn't have to be an insurmountable task. Crecente joins the 1099 to discuss the aftermath of Variety shutting down its otherwise successful video game coverage, what he hopes to achieve next, and all the lessons he's learned along the way about fundraising, talking to boardroom execs who control the purse strings, building a staff that will carry you beyond the starting line, the use of freelancers, and plenty more.
