Hello, we’re Spencer Hall, Richard Johnson, Jason Kirk, and Alex Kirshner. And now, it’s led to Hall, Kirk, Johnson and Kirshner launching a new, free, donation-supported newsletter, “Moon Crew,” with a logo from Whiting. That led to the departures of countless talented writers from sports site SB Nation and separate college football site Banner Society (either during the furloughs or later, when they did not in fact get their jobs back), and to furloughed/laid off/bought out writers and editors Spencer Hall, Jason Kirk, Richard Johnson and Alex Kirshner (all at Banner Society at the time of the furloughs, but at SB Nation before that) creating a “Sinful Seven: Western Legends of the NCAA” ebook with illustrator Tyson Whiting (a book which is really good, and worth your time). In April, Vox Media decided to focus their furloughs (which hit nine percent of their overall staff) on “ revenue areas where short-term demand will be lower,” which they somehow twisted to include sports despite large demand for good sportswriting even without live games.

He is also survived by thirteen grandchildren.While there have been plenty of layoffs and furloughs across sports media outlets this year thanks at least in part to economic impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Vox Media ones stand out as particularly dumb. He is survived by : his wife Melinda Kay Kirk of Saltillo his parent Sam Kirk of Harrison, Ohio his children, Paige Kirk of Booneville, Brooke Kirk of Saltillo, Arhea Sunshine Kirk of Saltillo, Clifton Kirk of Hamilton, Clint Harden of Saltillo, Tony Kirk of Saltillo and Kyle Harden of Saltillo and his siblings, Angie Sanford of Saltillo, Daisy Wilson of Iuka, Cecil Wagers of Saltillo, David Byrd of Saltillo and Phillip Kirk of Manchester, Ohio. He was predeceased by : his birth parents, George Byrd and Caroline Norman Byrd and his siblings, Debbie Wages, Pamela Johnson, Georgia Byrd and Tim Byrd. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Jason Kirk to pay them a last tribute.

Family and friends can send flowers and condolences in memory of the loved one. With heavy hearts, we announce the death of Jason Kirk of Saltillo, Mississippi, born in Dayton, Ohio, who passed away on Augat the age of 51.
