Blogger Paid to Blog About Being Laid Off by The Miami Herald

Posted by Alex in Blog & Internet on June 23, 2008 at 7:08 pm


Brayden Simms wrote for The Miami Herald’s Heavy Thrifting, a column about saving money, when recently the newspaper decided to take a tip on saving money and laid him (and many other employees) off.

But what’s a little ironic is how The Miami Herald is actually paying him to blog … about how he’s been laid off by The Miami Herald!

    I enjoyed his mom’s comment, and how he could sell stuff on “Carl’s List”

    Wow. It’s interesting. I kind of like the openness of it all. Way to go Brayden for doing it.
