Lol. I hope Trump didn't expect his portrayal at Gawker to get any more favorable.

 

[diablos991]

That's an unexpected twist.

I'm sure they will fit right in.

 

[EL CUCO]

Meet the new face of Kotaku

Actually, I think he's with Telemundo now.

 

[Mechazawa]

Univision has a huge liberal bias. They'll get along just fine with Gawker.

Mexicans have a tendency to not hate Mexicans, yes.

 

[CharminUltra]

Woah what

 

[FyreWulff]

verando manana, Gawker Gigante!

 

[mStudios]

Clearly, you haven't watched all of their wonderful Telenovelas.

 

[NolbertoS]

So now it means, Univision, Galavision and Univision Deportes is gonna advertise this. Surprised Univision hasn't bought more social media companies

 

[dragonzdogma]

verando manana, Gawker Gigante!

Not Spanish or English fyi.

 

[DrkSage]

That came out of nowhere. Imagine if it was bought by telemundo 😂

 

[neoanarch]

NBC? You know telemundo has been under NBC for a long ass time.

 

[Strangelove77]

What is this from?

 

[JobenNC]

OMG please tell me you have source

 

[wiibomb]

That came out of nowhere. Imagine if it was bought by telemundo 😂

I'm now glad they were bough by Uni lol

I wonder how much their business will change with this

 

[rhandino]

Eeek!

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Kotaku now available in SAP

Bashcraft to relocate and report on all the wacky Mexican geek culture, forced to learn Spanish.

 

[CHC]

Interesting buyer, but from the sound of things Kotaku should (hopefully) continue more or less as usual.

135 milly is also surprisingly.... low? Gawker was a huge company. I wonder what they were valued at in their heyday?

 

[DrkSage]

Ooooo.... I didn't know ¯_(&#12484_/¯ you learn something new everyday

Spoiler

im clueless about this kind of stuff 😂

 

[Prompto]

lmao perfect

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Kotaku pronounced in Spanish is Kotaku

 

[bernardobri]

Kotaku pronounced in Spanish is Kotaku

Nota del Traductor: Kotaku significa plan.

 

[wiibomb]

Nota del Traductor: Kotaku significa plan.

Todo de acuerdo al Kotaku

Spoiler

Stop this please

 

[bobawesome]

Univison is horrible TV tho.

Sounds like a match made in heaven, then.

 

[8-Bit Sunset]

So does this mean Univison has pay to Hogan now?

Lol even at $135 million they are still $5 million short of paying him.

Almost twice that.

Aside from a casual conversation or two, Denton says he has never been tempted to sell his site, which is worth at least $250 million based on the company's 2014 net revenue of $45 million. But growing Gawker Media hasn't always been easy.

Eeek!

Couldn't find a good video

Telenovela is Cuidado Con El Angel

 

[Theanine3D]

Univision has a huge liberal bias. They'll get along just fine with Gawker.

Do they really? I remember they aired ads speaking out against same sex marriage back when Prop 8 was on the ballot in California.

Their telenovelas are also full of sexist bullshit.

I think they're just liberal when it comes to anything related to immigration. On anything else, their pandering to the heavy Catholic leaning of their target audience is quite blatant.

 

[FyreWulff]

Not Spanish or English fyi.

look at rosetta stone over here

 

[Makonero]

Well, this is the day I learned my limitations within the spanish language.

I (kinda) tried but could not translate Press Sneak Fuck to spanish...



thank you,

Spoiler

I think

Google translate, booyah

Socially conservative older generations, heavily liberal younger generation.

[The Flash]

Bizarre to say the least

 

[illmatic22]

YES

 

[Gattsu25]

Univision, owners of TheOnion.com, ClickHole.com, AVClub.com, TheRoot.com, and now the Gawker family of sites (io9.com and kotaku.com being the ones that interest me the most)

 

[SpikedGunner]

Hey that means Haim Saban now owns this...free references to Power Rangers!

Ah Univision telenovelas, masters of over-telegraphing, never change...Maite Perroni though, damn.

 

[EL CUCO]

How awesome would it be if Kotaku included El Chacal in all future reviews.

 

[FyreWulff]

Kotaku pronounced in Spanish is Kotaku

It's all in the pace. Even with my shitty bits and pieces of Spanish, the radio announcers would find some way to stretch Kotaku out into a six second long word.

Univision, owners of TheOnion.com, ClickHole.com, AVClub.com, TheRoot.com, and now the Gawker family of sites (io9.com and kotaku.com being the ones that interest me the most)

That's pretty funny that they own both a clickbait site and a parody of a clickbait site

Well, if the fuck in press sneak fuck is referring to the person like "you fucker" then it would be cabron

My translation would be "sigiloso cabron de prensa", but then that would be "press sneak fucker"

 

[Wuthering_Heights]

Maybe Univision could instill a sense of journalistic integrity to Gawker at large.

You'd have to purge most of the 'journalists' from the network to do that, tho.

 

[AgeEighty]

Seems like an odd pairing on the surface, but supposedly Univision has been trying to branch out beyond Spanish-language stuff, and this certainly seems to back that up.

It's a strange outcome but it could potentially be a better option than Z-D, whom I am sure would have tried to consolidate with their other media properties at some point.

 

[Makonero]

That's pretty much the meaning

We can call it localization

The only legit clickbait site that I visit is DrudgeReport.com

I'm assuming you are referring to gawker.com but I wouldn't know since I don't visit them.

 

[Makonero]

can we get Jason Schreier's tag to read "sigiloso cabron de prensa" instead now?

 

[NoFaceNico]

If they bring us the muchachas who do the weather reports, I think I might be giving the Gawker network another chance.

 

[Darryl M R]

Jajajaja

 

[oti]

Better story than NMS.

 

[ghostjoke]

Univision expanding their collection of parody sites?

"Gawker, we're self-aware now"

 

[DocSeuss]

I wonder if this means I can start pitching adventure games like Clickhole's...
