Gawker Runs Out of Ink
“Gawker.com, where the author is employed as a staff writer, declined to publish this story.” Editor’s note opening a Scientology exposé by John Cook at the New York Observer, edited by Gawker founding blogger Elizabeth Spiers. Cook says the story was “taking too long” for Gawker.
I don’t know what any of this means. Here in Norway we have the world’s highest standard of living and awesome surfing. What does this Scientology have to do with Viking raids and being blond?
Very little, unless your Vikings have taken to raiding in spaceships that look just like DC-8s. ;)
@Snorri Haraldsson: Scandinavian freak.
@Snorri Haraldsson: All very well, but of course Norway’s going to hell.
The Gawker redesign is horrible. It’s awkward, crowded, and a pain in the ass to navigate.
I’ll stick with The Daily Mail for my brainless celebrity gossip, thanks.
