Choire Sicha Returns

Word on the street is that King Denton will be welcoming former editor Choire Sicha back to the Gawker empire tomorrow. It wouldn't be the first time he's re-opened the gates to an alum, but it would be the first time for anyone to return after a significant absence. When Denton canned Nick Douglas and then let him back, it was on a columnist basis (or whatever diggbait is). Sicha left as the "editorial director" and returns to do... what?

[update] YM has the dirt, as usual, and points us to another former Gawkerite's New York blurb. Oxfeld says Mohney's weathered hide has been discarded for the less ragged (but sufficiently angsty-er) former editorial director. Quite sad.

A moment of silence please
