“You being lazy and unmotivated and not writing allows another writer, who does sit down and write, to get published in your place. Magazines and publishers only have so many pages, so many annual publishing spots. You’re letting someone else who wants to do the work get published. Surely that’s a good thing…?” — Neil Gaiman

The Onion’s Bumpy Ride to Chicago
The Onion is in the midst of the biggest upheaval in the newspaper’s 24-year history.

But we’re here in the center of everything and it’s still a challenge to find good people,” said one of the refuseniks, who worried that without “that core group … you don’t have anyone to carry the torch.”
