Its not like they weren't warned or anything. The mods told the community that they got approached for an interview in a pinned post. Declaring they won't be doing it unless they had someone really really good at speaking.
In comes one of the oldest mods, who genuinely is completely anti all forms of work, from when the sub was actually against the very concept of working, claiming to have media training (they had been interviewed before, through email). And they launch themselves to the occasion and the rest is history.
Very sad situation. Thanks for elaborating. I didnt know any of this.
