All Gawker websites cause massive slowdowns, Not Responding status (but it rarely crashes), and don't always load properly, regardless of the number of open tabs or programs.
Any time I navigate to one of the Gawker Media sites, Firefox slows down massively. The page loads extremely slowly, and the program freezes up. I often get a (Not Responding) message up at the top of the screen. Other programs on my computer are unaffected. This rarely (only twice in dozens of tries) actually crashed Firefox. It eventually comes back and everything runs fine, on that tab and others, until I try to move to or add another Gawker Media page. Occassionally the Gawker sites don't seem to load properly, but I suspect that may be an unrelated issue, caused by ABP or NoScript blocking ads or pop-ups on individual pages.

I had this problem to and appears to be caused by After The Deadline @ http://atdfirefox.wordpress.com/ .
-> Tap ALT key or press F10 to show the Menu Bar
-> Update ALL your Firefox Plug-ins https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
-> go to Tools Menu -> Clear Recent History -> Time range to clear: select "EVERYTHING" -> click Details (small arrow) button -> place Checkmarks on Cookies, Cache -> click Clear Now
-> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Advanced -> Network -> Offline Storage (Cache): click Clear Now button
-> Restart Firefox
If it doesn't work, see this:
Firefox never finishes loading certain websites
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox%20never%20finishes%20loading%20certain%20websites
Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can
Check and tell if its working.
