“An incredible team remains, and our mission is as relevant now as ever.” By Marlee Baldridge Aug. 3, 2018, 1:27 p.m. Aug. 3, 2018, 1:27 p.m. Good Media Group, which owns viral site Upworthy and Good Magazine, cut at least 31 employees yesterday. The layoffs were first announced on Thursday afternoon in a tweet from editor-in-chief Liz Heron , who said she is also resigning. Today, almost my entire team at Upworthy/GOOD was laid off (and I resigned). This talented and passionate group of reporters, editors, growth/data and product experts is now looking for work, so if you’re hiring and want introductions, DM me. Upworthy CEO Charlie Wilkie also resigned Thursday, and Upworthy cofounder Eli Pariser said in a tweeted statement that he’d resigned from his board position last week. Thank you for your leadership and support, @charlie_wilkie . (
