1) Hey BHDC, maybe you can do a new post about the threats and harassment that Free Republic and many other Web sites are getting over Larry Sinclair’s story: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2055994/posts
2) How Gawker Media screens its interns.
3) Any news on Leola McConnell? I hope she is alive and doing well. I believe her and find her “stories” to be credible. What is the latest on her? Where can I get a copy of her books if she had time to write them?
4) John Cusack to appear in Hustler: “Actor and producer John Cusack finally unleashes his outrage at the Bush Administration and their disastrous failures: ‘The right-wing uses the aesthetics of authoritarianism. American patriotism is the cover for what they do.” In the context of his most recent movie, War, Inc., a dark comedy that skewers the Iraq War and American capitalism and greed, Cusack discusses with Hustler the goals, motivations and stresses of writing and producing such a film. The controversial War, Inc. was an international success starring Dan Aykroyd, Ben Kingsley, Joan Cusack, Hilary Duff and Cusack himself. War, Inc. will be available on DVD October 14 at retailers nationwide.” Related: recent interview.

They have no sources. They make stuff up. They’re toads. They’re little toads. Actually, they’re pimples on the behind of the greater body politic in this country and in this city [everyone in the studio cackles for no reason]. And because, because they have access to airwaves and three or four people read them, they think, ‘Oh, I’m very important.’
Kassy K, the girl who played a role in multiple DC-based “blog wars,” while always claiming innocence, is leaving town. She’s
With much fanfare,
OK, time to fess up. How many of you went out full force trying to buy the Aqua Dots toy after you found out yesterday that they contain the “
