Defector Media is a subscription-based sports blog and media company founded in September 2020 and based in Manhattan. The Defector blog is primarily written by former employees of the Deadspin sports blog. In October and November 2019, all writers at Deadspin quit en masse following an edict from the blog's owner, G/O Media, to "stick to sports". On January 31, 2020, Tom Ley and several other former writers established an interim site sponsored by Dashlane, which operated over Super Bowl LIV weekend. The site reopened for the week of April 20, sponsored by a cannabis oil company.
