Rex was not being truthful. It's about the money. The editors were furious that the contributor budgets have been slashed so drastically. CNET is looking to turn Builder.com into ZDNET where all content is vendor sponsored content. ZDNET and Techrepublic also use the same India firm. CNET has had so many lay-offs that there are no editorial people left. They tried to move everything to Louisville KY. Shelby Bonnie once called it little India because salaries were so much cheaper. Once they found out how cheep they could offshore, they are letting the Louisville staff go. TechRepublic's new tag line should be Real It By Real Indians.
TechRepublic and ZDNET are doing it too
