Has anyone here ever worked for or know someone who worked for GoLocalProv?
So I stumbled upon some old articles alleging the CEO of GoLocalProv, Josh Fenton, of not paying employees and in general being an asshole. Can anyone confirm? Between the garbage they peddle and the shady deal they had with the Providence City Council nothing would surprise me.
“I have. Josh Fenton is a crook and a hustler running a website that lies about page views to advertisers. Hardly anyone reads that website, but he’d make you think it’s the NYT. He’s also threatened to sue me a few times.”
“Josh Fenton is a scumbag. If he got hit by a RIPTA bus tomorrow, I’d be heartbroken … that the bus was damaged.”
“I have a friend who they tried to stiff on money for stories he wrote. Totally anecdotal though, and just one case.”
“Yeah, worked as a ‘contractor’ for a few weeks. Left quickly due to unprofessionalism towards coworkers and myself. Took a bit chasing down to get payment, but was paid. Would advise against working for him or that company”
“Fenton is in bondage to George Soros, who uses golocalprov to undermine the sovereignty of rhode island through disinformation campaigns”
