The morality of a slave.

I think this is a good time to sing the refrain that is used so often on this site and Gawker:

“How To Mind Your Own Damn Business: An Ode To Tact”

Casual cognitive dissonance and rampant self-entitlement can be found in damn near every post submitted to Gawker and its hegemony.

Your description of the NY Post is a perfect description of Gawker et al.
