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.
5) Seriously. You had DCist and Wonkette on the ropes and now you’re doing weekly posts about Larry fucking Sinclair? Are you going to relaunch the blog, or is it going to stay like this?

“Did you hear the exciting news from the Congressional Budget Office?” asks exiting Gawker editor Choire Sicha today. “As the Times puts it: ‘The increase in incomes of the top 1 percent of Americans from 2003 to 2005 exceeded the total income of the poorest 20 percent of Americans.’”
