FishbowlDC’s editor, Patrick Gavin, is definitely the better actor for pretending to be a journalist all these months (and for getting some of you to believe him):

Copyedit, dude! Or have Inky do it.

Patrick Gavin, rounding out a year of amazing mistakes, makes possibly his most glaring one yet this morning:

The hubris coming from Patrick Gavin, FishbowlDC’s editor, is alarming.

Picture at right is local media darling Patrick Gavin. For those of you just tuning in, he’s a gossip reporter for both The Examiner and FishbowlDC. We’ve long dissected and translated his work — which has made some people mad sometimes. Which we think is quite funny!

Lately, things have turned more personal. People have seen him jogging around town in an apparent effort to ward off heart disease, so we told you about that. People have been questioning his dance skills, so we showed you a video. People have been asking about possible ties to the Dennis Kucinich campaign…oh wait, we haven’t said anything about that — yet.

Today, we take you in a new direction. It’s time to assess Gavin’s dress and overall appearance at the big Meet the Press anniversary party earlier this week. Word is, he desperately didn’t want his picture snapped, but we still managed to land our hands on one (again, it’s the pic at right). So, what do you think? Should he have sported a jacket? What about his teeth? Like the blue shirt? Why doesn’t he button the top button? You tell us now.

Remember how we told you last week that the FishbowlDC item about a big shake-up at The Hill newspaper was a bunch of bologna? And then commenters started writing in saying that that our item just couldn’t possibly be true — that if FishbowlDC editor Patrick Gavin wrote it, it must be solid? Well, Patrick clarifies today:

Lesson here: trust us, kids. Also! FishbowlDC is totally great at reporting the “mundane.”

That breathless post today from FishbowlDC editor Patrick Gavin, stating that “The Hill’s Editor in Chief, Hugo Gurdon, has called a rare all-staff meeting for tomorrow, saying that there’s ‘lots to discuss’”? Full of hot air. Gurdon tells Big Head DC that “it’s just a regular editorial staff meeting of the sort we try to have about once a month.” But you gotta wonder: who is that Hill newsroom source who always feeds Gavin the false leads? And what is his or her intention?
