Dealbreaker.com Frequently Asked Question

This 'Dealbreaker' of which you speak...When is it launching?(There's only one: When is it launching?)

And the answer is: sometime in late March--barring any development-related explosions, untimely illnesses, acts of God, etc.

The last week, most likely.

BUT look for a little teaser in a couple of weeks.

Update: Actually, a lot of people keep asking about hiring and blogger pay as well. I'm basically hiring one primary editor full-time (and at full-time rates) for every site we launch. It's a 9-5, more or less, and the site editors are essentially beat reporters. There will probably be additional contributors who post infrequently (people with some niche expertise or freelancers who want to cover a specific story), and they'll be paid per post, but I think it's important to have at least one person fully dedicated to each site.

And the corollary question: Are we hiring? Yes. Send resumés and cover letters to elizabeth AT dealbreaker DOT com. If you have a blog, include sample posts. If you don't, clips.
