From what we hear Kriston Capps, an arts writer based in DC, is pretty much an all-around nice guy. Still, we gave you the chance to judge one of the scandalous female winners of FishbowlDC’s annual “Hottest Media Types” contest earlier today, so it wouldn’t be fair not to put Capps through the ringer. And! He sometimes contributes to the City Paper, which in itself is enough to deserve a little scrutiny, dontcha think?

DC may not be not be a good looking city and journalists can be an ugly lot, but surely Claire Danes in her awkward phase and Jesse Oxfeld look-a-likes are not the best looking writers there. And yet Catherine Andrews, an editor at The Washingtonian online, and Kriston Capps, an arts writer, won this year’s FishbowlDC Hottest Media Types, Off Air Division.

But as the sleuths over at Salon uncovered, the whole thing was a fraud. “Friends” of Capps and Andrews created voting bots to rig the election. Which just goes to show, only ugly people care about looking good online.
