The interesting thing is everyone on Survivor seemed to know it was wrong immediately whereas much of Gawker was shocked by the negative reaction to that piece.
Oh, the irony. I wonder how the CFO of Conde Nast feels about this.
Oppression is so beautiful.
How inclusive of this human cattle auction.
What is your point? America has relations with the abominable House of Saud (well, some of the family aren’t all that bad, but overall... ), so I shouldn’t say that Fidel Castro was a goddamn piece of shit?
Naw. There are a lot of lawyer-client relationships where the balance of power is equal or the client is the one with more power. Plus, resigning as counsel for this reason can be complex, and can open a lawyer up to criticism and censure in the legal community and in their own firm. “10 whole seconds and no drama”…
I think that the response from the U.S. shows the deep misunderstanding between these two cultures. If you watch the whole performance (available on YouTube), the theme of the show was to perform an ice-skating routine inspired by a movie. They chose “A Beautiful Life,” and the routine shows a woman who follows her…
It seems strange to ban this. there really is no conflict of interest interest considering a lawyer should want to get their client off anyway

I’ve seen a number of Holocaust-inspired ice skating pieces (and one mind boggling synchronized swimming one), and this is the only one that I thought actually portrayed horror. Also, I appreciate that…
I agree that Evgenia’s use of the real audio was a terrible idea. This does raise a question for me though: Is there something about skating that makes it inherently unsuitable for addressing serious real-world topics, more so than other types of art and performance? There are plays, movies, novels, ballets, and…
All legacies are mixed.
Everyplace is wonderful if you only cherry pick the few things they’re good at, and just ignore the chronic unemployment and crippling poverty.
The pretzel logic you have twisted yourself into is delicious.
Even the ones that did get a refund deserve an apology. This is PR 101. A refund does not make your customers magically happy again. They were strung along for years and there were a lot of people given a lot of false hope. This isn’t inconsequential stuff like some people are making it out to be. In my place of work,…
It’s. As. If. Your. Every. Step. Is. The. First. Step. Over. The. Cliff.
You know who else was a victim of domestic violence? The guy who got his dick cut off.
