Original Note:
The mass layoffs at Sports Illustrated are because Arena Group, the company that publishes SI, missed a $3.75 million dollar payment to Authentic, Sports Illustrated's license holder, thereby severing the license. There is no evidence editorial decisions impacted the layoffs. https://frontofficesports.com/sports-illustrateds-publisher-lays-off-entire-staff-future-unclear/
