I know there are worse people in this administration but GODDAMNIT I HATE BOTH OF THEIR FACES

Sigh....

As Rosie O’Donnell w0uld say in 1998, “he’s a cutie-patootie!!”

First of all, I mention that she’s the second-largest employer in her area. Second of all, this.

A lot of the grumbling comes because she’s selling this “aw shucks” rural lifestyle to people who have no clue that her version of rural life is so vastly different from the rural reality of most other farm/ranch wives. She’s inauthentic, and though she puts on a down home image she’s incredibly privileged (see above:…

Weeel, she did do anepisode where she made (pretended to make?) spicy “Asian” wings, her “men” all wrinkled their noses, and then she was all “jk! here are the REAL wings!”

But it DOES have moving parts NOT involving your arm. The Piston/Plunger, the Filter Screen, and the Structure Disc. Yes, while you do use the movement of your arm to allow the up and down motion, that doesn’t make the press have “absolutely no moving parts”. If it didn’t have any, your arm would get tired of the…

I have never heard of any of these people. Maybe you logged on to the twinternet by accident? Try turning your computer off and then turn it back on again.

My sister is obsessed with Anna’s and I like their food but it is not my favorite. I love the tortas from El Pelon. I have been getting delivery from there a lot lately because I’m lazy but I also love their food.

For New Englanders- boloco is freaking awesome. I cried when they closed their Concord NH location (but they still have one in Hanover). In the Lakes Region of NH, Burrito Me in Plymouth and Laconia is fantastic. The Plymouth one was my Thursday hangout for a burrito and a marg between classes.

On the whole, I agree with everything you said. But, he has at least stopped calling these women liars. There is something in that. It is a very low bar - but name one of the assholes currently accused of clearing that bar.

As far as apologies go, that’s as good as it gets. No deflection. Doesn’t minimize his actions, or magically erase them, but it’s a good start.

I have defended Gawker (and related sub-blogs) for years! Holy hell is that clip difficult to watch/listen to. As you say, I like Jezebel, but I was so disappointed in how they handled this CK story from the jump, and now they are trying to do a victory lap because they published the vaguest of rumors without having…

This. THIS.

I guess I don’t get how you can play the “we’re doing real journalism” card when the NY Times busted the story wide-open with 5 sources in what, a few weeks since the Weinstein stuff broke? And you’ve supposedly had it for years?

That’s not what I said. Read what I said and come up with a more thoughtful response. You’re intentionally dumbing down my comments in order to make it sound like I’m just an idiot.

Maybe this very old clip will help you understand where some of the skepticism of your ethical standards originated. Jezebel (and Gawker) had legitimate journalism issues. And you know what? So does the NYTimes, WSJ, etc. You are held to higher standards and when you fail, you NEED to be called out on it. A lot of…

Two publications that both broke stories about public figures committing sexual misconduct within hours of each other. It’s an easy mistake to make and it doesn’t make their criticism any less valid. 

To all the people saying it was the Times, I think the original commenter may be thinking of the Roy Moore story that broke today too. In either case, the Post and the Times went and found people willing to go on the record. They did not send out an open request, or a plea, or whatever you want to call it, and that’s…

I respect the effort that you put into this and am really impressed with you sticking to this. I often, publicly and online, noted that I was reserving judgment because I didn’t get it. I was wrong. Thank you.
