All of his posts - 90% or better - are informative, interesting, and bring thousands of clicks to the gawker empire. If he's not officially on the team, he oughta be.

I thought this as soon as I saw his 5th real article

Steve?

True story, though mostly unrelated: Steve is one of the best names for virtually anything or anyone. I DM'ed a game of D&D in which one of the NPCs was a necromancer named Steve. My full size Dalek is named Steve. I could go on...

I agree, but I think this brings too much stings. We see that both Tavarish and Automatch post regularly, which I am sure takes from their personal time more than when they just posted "for fun". I love reading Tom, Tavarish and Steve even if I am in Europe and things are very different, but I think I enjoyed it even more when they were doing this just because they had it on top of their heads, not because they are in some way emplyed by Jalopnik.

Yes. I anticipate his next post like I anticipate the next season of Top Gear.

You hear that denton? Theres your guaranteed 18-24yo demographic right there!

Steve Lehto, he writes really interesting and informative articles on Automotive Law and they've all gotten FP'd. I agree with the OP, he should be paid for that, I saw one of the ones he wrote recently had 400K+ views

Pros: showed people outright sleeping at the Santa Fe Opera, which is exactly what I did on my only visit there. Great napping weather that night.
Cons: Donal Logue appeared to be wearing a frigging fat suit in this movie. Or at least a prosthetic gut. Really? I have no truck with any medium which employs a fat suit to tell its story.

Whaaa...??
I thought he already was.

Wow! I'll look him up.

Yes, of course, I've read his pieces. I'd say generating 400k clicks should be turning some heads.

I sort of get what you mean but don't think it makes a difference here - he'd be writing those articles anyway might as well get further promotion and incentive for it!

I didn't think of this but it makes SO much sense - Jalopnik's official go-to guy for legal issues! I mean that's why Tavarish and AutomatchTom were "hired" as they both have good knowledge of their niches so it should definitely happen!

So many Steves.
The take over shall begin soon.

I had not seen this post before. Thanks for the compliment. And someone wrote it below so I will admit that it is true - I'll probably keep writing these posts regardless of what status I have here. (But I did have that one 450K view post - how cool was that?!)

If this site were nothing but Steve Lehto and Jason Torchinsky I would never stop reading it.

I would happily trade Tavarish's for Steve's informative & sensible posts. He's a great writer, his posts are always very well considered & thorough, and he's not afraid to put his real name on them.

Absolutely, Steve is among the best writers who post here and is my favorite.
