WHAT conservative town? Where did this happen? When did it happen? Yeah, I can read it at the link; however if you’re going to aggregate this story, include the basic journalistic “W’s”

I understand that the vast majority of articles posted ny Gawker are rehashes of articles posted elsewhere. You still need to credit the other source. Several of your sentences that are not pulled out as block quotes are lifted directly, verbatim, from the NY Times article. Don’t take credit for writing that is not…

“I bet those aren’t even real diamonds in your tiara. Fake ass diamonds.”
