| - Fire Joe Morgan was a sports journalism criticism blog which focused primarily on baseball. It was updated regularly from 2005 through 2008. Although the late sports commentator Joe Morgan was often criticized, the site did not target him exclusively, but rather criticized anything the writers considered to be ignorant journalism as a whole. The blog's slogan was "Where Bad Sports Journalism Comes to Die." The blog usually used a format known as fisking. The website officially announced its discontinuation in November 2008. Although the website is no longer updated, its archives are still available at firejoemorgan.com. The blog had what was to be a one-day reprise on September 16, 2009, when Deadspin invited the authors to guest post. The authors guest posted again on Deadspin on September 22, 2010. In 2016, Fire Joe Morgan was assessed as being "on the right side of history" and "very, very funny" by Slate. Upon Joe Morgan's passing in 2020, the authors noted their regret about the blog's name. That same year, the authors held a reunion. (en)
