tenniseveryone posted:Hey guys, I recently got put in charge of the comics section of this pop culture website called WhatCulture! and I've been asked to seek out new freelance writers. I'm looking for people who know comics (I'm looking at you, Batman's Shameful Secret folk), can come up with article ideas and then write them well. Oh yeah and it pays, obvs. Is this offer only open to comic book nerds? Me and a few friends are disillusioned with cracked and are looking for a place to dump listicles about futurism and general mad science. The "other" subcategory could accommodate us.

ravenkult posted:Just the TIME it takes to do poo poo like that is enough to price it way higher than 100$ no matter how amateur you might be. Lack of collective bargaining and simple supply and demand allows low wages. This is why Cracked works your rear end off and then pays you poo poo. Either you see this as exploitation or you see it as simple economic reality that builds up your personal portfolio. Take this in mind and cut Jay O a break.

mutata posted:Well you obviously view it as exploitation considering your last posts. Capitalism is organized exploitation; this fact cannot be escaped. I don't get why goons don't set up collectives and crowdfund certain projects while ensuring cheap but steady pay to those they think are talented.

mutata posted:I don't get why you can't just accept that writing for Cracked is payment enough in itself. Cracked is pretentious clickbait. When doing a podcast about the propaganda behind "A Christmas Carol" they omitted talking about Tiny Tim, who was put in the story just to annihilate their cynic point of view. Cracked is run by complacent post-yuppies and is in the thrall of listicle minutiae. Sithsaber fucked around with this message at 08:13 on Jul 21, 2014 |

ravenkult posted:I got this hole needs digging, it'd be perfect for an amateur hole digger like you! I can only pay 10 bucks though, but there might be more work in the future! The middle class bourgeoisie have different expectations than the poor or the third world. In the age of internet, the kid from Shanghai is at an advantage. At least he isn't asking you to be an unpaid intern. Sithsaber fucked around with this message at 16:47 on Jul 21, 2014 |
