Elsewhere in the magical kingdom of Romy,
Roger Ailes, one of those who helped assure ALL PARIS ALL THE TIME, makes a startling admission:
I'M THE ONE WHO PUT MARIA BARTIROMO ON THE AIR!!!!!!!!!! [Overemphasis added]
Certainly you don't have to jump up and down and wave your arms while saying that, Rog. She might get you for trademark infringement. And a true believer named Hendrik, with his incandescent smile only slightly less attractive than the bikini-clad model in the ad next to him,
grasps at his daily straws:
Where do you go every day on the Web?
I go to Talking Points Memo several times a day—the main site and its offshoots. That's the set of sites I go to by far the most. TPM feels like home; ideologically and politically it's a perfect fit for me. I can rely on it to draw my attention to anything that's of major interest to me in the world of public affairs. I go to two of the Atlantic blogs, namely Sullivan and Yglesias. Slightly less often I go to Romenesko and Crooks & Liars and Wolcott and Fallows; and Kevin Drum at the Washington Monthly. The American Prospect I go to almost daily. The Plank, the New Republic's group blog. Steve Clemons' Washington Note. Glenn Greenwald is someone I go to a lot. I check out Kos now and then to take the temperature of the teeming liberal masses.TRANSLATION: I'm the effete liberal analog of those yahoos who listen to nothing but
PILLHEAD. Now we know why
The New Yorker is always so full of -- itself.
