    Today's Gawker take on the Post:

    1) It's full of racist sexists (Guzman sues)
    2) It's dying! (reaction to the Times report)
    3) Awesome story about the big spending Malaysian club guy.

    Summary: Death to the Post -- God save the Post. #newyorkpost

    Because the Post is the only place where writers are willing to work for an evil overlord. And being a Hispanic woman, everything Sandra Guzman says *must* be true. #newyorkpost

    @Joe Mitchell's Secret: Actually, being a Hispanic woman is the reason she had to put up with this shit in the first place. I can see how a person could find it hard to believe that Ms. Guzman is telling the truth, what with all that journalistic integrity and ethical practices the Post has always been known for

    Sounds like some of the editorial jobs I had, including the one where my (married, older) boss said to me, "You look like someone who really likes a good f***." And a few days later, after word got around, he had me fired. #newyorkpost

    @waitingforlefty: Exactly how did "word get around?"

    You have two choices in life:

    A) Learn to deflect the comments of morons.

    B) Marry rich.

    Choose wisely.

    @burbere002: Wondering why you ask. Because I was so shocked I passed out in the ladies' room after the incident (I was young and naive then), a co-worker had to drive me home, and it was much discussed after that. Okay? #newyorkpost

    As a white, male American, I am simply appalled and offended by the amount of reverse racism and reverse sexism shown by Miss Guzman and her alleged Complaint.

    These quibbles show insensitivity to my worldview that as a white man in America, I can do or say whatever I like to whomever I like with no consequences whatsoever. Moreover, I'm sure that there is a study from a think tank somewhere that shows a majority of Americans agree with me.

    Now if you don't mind, I have some pictures of penises I need to have circulated to the "womyn" in this office to show them what they're missing out on. #newyorkpost

    Wait, giggling frat-boy asshats run our nation's media network? WHAT?!? How can it be so!

    Oh, how broken are my illusions. Next you'll tell me that our financial system is commandeered by over-privileged bastard frat boys who only hire their sons or the best friends of their sons for positions of power and drink sapphire-infused champagne out of the shattered shells of their minor stockholders and bank/loan customers's hopes and dreams.

    I have zero empathy for anyone involved in putting out that hate rag. Guzman was happy to print dangerous distortions of fact until it got a little too close to home, and now she's upset about it? Too fuckin' bad. #newyorkpost

That is the point of the place, just as racism, sexism, and right-wing crankery are the raisons d'etre of the New York Post. You lie down with dogs, you get fleas... #newyorkpost

    What the what the? I'm glad she stuck it out for so long and now has so much ammunition. Sucks to be him - must be horrible to live in his head, filled with so much fear and vitriol; and he's obviously too far gone to wise up now. What a sad sack.

    "depicting Allan as a stupid, giggling frat-boy who likes to show his female employees pictures of naked men for kicks. "

    My college newspaper was ran by fratboys before I took it over.

    Even they where not as crass as to do some of the shit he's accused of. In fact when someone pranked a fellow editor by putting a screen of a guy felating himself as her desktop he was let go for inappropriate behavior.

    We may have stuck Pizza's to the ceiling and had a ruckus last publishing night party with bottles and bottles of liquor snuck into the student center office, but we actually respected our editors and writers. #newyorkpost
