Wonder who it is. Senior editor surprised me.
FK in the coffee. Isn't that right, Zac?
Makes sense. Jeff Green would never take a job as an associate editor.

Zac Minor is just someone helping them out over E3, likely working with Vinny/Drew
so you're telling me they're replacing Vinny Caravella
with Vinny Caravella
Vinny leaving, new person confirmed...

Surely 'senior' means Jeff Green? 
when he let out that nonchalant "alright, cool" i knew it had to be one of the new hires
Makes sense.

Rorie is the Nidhogg and Jeff Green got a new job, sweet.
Yeah, that tweet was from 5 days ago.
background check, drug test, maybe orientation? That'll probably take around a month.
You usually do a background check before you hire someone, no?
no not always.
In my experience, 48 hours.
That and I imagine they dont want to throw the new person in 'till after E3.

Gonna give Cara a month to move into the area, like.
yeah, thats what I was thinking, usually after hiring someone the most they would need to do is a drug test maybe... be interesting to see if anyone announces leaving their job this week....

Close to the time that Jeff said they officially had a new editor, Jared Rosen confirmed?

Giant Bomb is not looking to hire a dude to make him the "Anthony Bourdain of video games" try again fellas

Gonna guess it's Rosen until proven otherwise.
I have no idea if he's good or not! Hell, maybe he's the new producer instead!

I figured the Bordain thing (edit: and everything else) was a joke. *shrug*

I youtubed Jared Rosen and all I can find is videos of him eating spicy food and then trying to talk about video games while choking on capsaicin...
Was hoping for Cara, though I wouldn't be surprised if Jeff was talking about her when he mentioned how some applicants didn't want to move for the job. Obviously don't know anything for sure, just my feeling. She has her own project which requires her to travel a lot, but she also said she applied, so I don't know how she was planning to coordinate that.
Edit: Ah, so there's still a chance.

So... Quick Looks?
Sounds basically like the first year and a half of bombcasts.
Rosen was the guy who wrote about that crazy Game Jam debacle, right? While it was a crazy weird event that deserved the coverage, I think the article he wrote on it was kinda poorly written.
But maybe his other work is okay. Or maybe we're discussing this for no reason cause maybe he's not the guy.

It was him, yes. Not a good article, yup.
