Gita Jackson Doesn’t Make Companies Happy, So You Don’t Have to Either

What do you do when video game journalism is crumbling around you? Gita can help you with that.


“The other thing about Aftermath specifically is I would trust those motherfuckers with my life. There's so much money that goes into that bank account and I don't see any of it. And I just trust that they're not depleting it, you know? I trust them so much that even when they piss me off, I still want to run a business with them. So I feel like my internal bullshit calibrator is very, very strong.”


Gita Jackson is the co-owner of Aftermath, a worker-owned news site covering video games, the internet, and the cultures that surround them. She is also the co-host of 52 Pickup, a podcast about the DC Comics series 52, with Alex Jaffe.
