[the parting words of Choire Sicha, who's moved from doing Gawker to being the editorial director of the Gawker empire] <http://www.gawker.com/index.php?page=2> The Week In Buzz: Naomi Campbell Beats Again My tenure here at Gawker draws to a close. We'll have a special double-editor feature sometime before Monday, but for now, I guess I'll say this: I arrived a year ago on this website rather vaguely socialist.

[pix at original: <http://www.lowculture.com/archives/002222.html>] August 16, 2004 Bill O'Reilly, the most-reviled media figure on the New York Subway System A Fox News ad at Rockefeller Center, located roughly one block from the network's studio and headquarters.

Dick Cheney, Hugo Chavez and Bill Clinton's Band Why Venezuela has Voted Again for Their 'Negro e Indio' President by Greg Palast Monday, August 16, 2004 -- There's so much BS and baloney thrown around about Venezuela that I may be violating some rule of US journalism by providing some facts. Let's begin with this: 77% of Venezuela's farmland is owned by 3% of the population, the 'hacendados.' I met one of these farmlords in Caracas at an anti-Chavez protest march. Oddest demonstration I've ever ...

23758 [lbo-talk] KPFA Staff Open Letter to the Local Station Board -- rank: 1000

It would require immersing myself far more than I want to in station politics to sort it all out, but there's a highly racialized battle going on between members of the local station board, complaining about "black racism" on the airwaves, and the existing station leadership, which is allied with forces alleging a conspiracy to purge the "Africans" at WBAI.
