Though the 5 core Nerd Alert guys(including Zach here) were critical of some trends, they were also very complimentary of other current trends and efforts.
They definitely would praise where they saw good taking place.

Yeah, highly doubt the Nerd Alert podcast ruffling the feathers of "big bike" was the reasoning behind who stayed and went.
If anything it was strictly seniority vs page views/sellable ad numbers. Caley, Matt, Dave and James have all been at CT the longest amongst the crew remaining after the May cuts, and Caley and Matt published much less than Dave and James, and Dave's "tech nerd" content while great was always less mainstream than James' "gear junkie" posts. Granted that's a pretty broad generalization, but one that seems to make the most sense.
And smoking gun for the layoffs....
