    Should I have known who Anthony Kennedy was before I read this? I only know of one Supreme Court Justice, and I'm not even sure if she's alive.

    In what way could the students have misquoted him that would have made him look as bad as this does? Unless they had him confessing to a sex crime, he or an overeager assistant or both really shot him in the foot here. #dalton

    "Obviously, in the professional world, it would be a nonstarter if a source demanded prior approval of coverage of a speech," LoMonte said.

    Wonder what he would make of the deal Times reporter Jeremy Peters struck with Paterson chief of staff Charles O'Byrne to approve quotes from an interview before publication. (Thank you John Cook: [gawker.com] )

    Dear Gawker Community,
    We are unable to comment on this post due to numerous publication constraints.
    I knew I shouldn't have given the editors the right to check my quotes.

    Actually, the NYT should be familiar with this sort of quote-check pre-publication approval. John Cook showed last week how reporter Jeremy Peters entered into a similar deal with Paterson chief of staff Charles O'Byrne. [gawker.com]

    Gawker is a place to come for snark when something is snarkworthy. Like the famewhoring shenanigans of Julia Allison or the messed up BCC on the Twitter HR email. Not dead kids. Dead kids are not funny.


    I don't think anyone is posting stories about tragedies to turn this into some kind of hearts and flowers condolence board. We can be humane and insightful once in a while, right?


    That said, I am officially a fucking old because I couldn't even decipher the text lingo comment that got his whole thing started.

    I think The Real Jr is just trying to distract the "snarks" while The Real Real Jr fills out his sons application at a certain "private" where a "slot" just opened.

    @Cindy_McCain: Is this some of that "comedy" you were opining about, earlier? Looks more like trolling for a fight.


    FWIW, The Real Jr. is a woman.

    @BadUncle: Yeah, a woman and a tough one. If you're speculating about her motives - and I seriously doubt she's writing to get her kid into a prep school - send her a personal message on her commenter page. I'm sure she'll respond. IF you're interested in a dialogue. And if you're not, then please quietly drift away.

    In the Hipster Runoff universe, the only acceptable worldview is blowing up the hospital. HRO needs rugs, and people to stand on them, so that it can pull it out from them and show how stupid they were for thinking they were safe, for "pretending" they knew who they were. Just like Gawker, HRO won't stop until we're all too afraid to do anything, to step on the rug and take a fucking chance, to give a shit. Until we're all crippled by self-consciousness, and the worry of making a mistake. The targets will get younger and softer until we're laughing at thirteen year olds and ten year olds and five year olds, how stupid they are, how they embarrass themselves, how they believe they can do things it's so obvious to the rest of us they just can't do--so fucking obvious because we know so fucking much.

    Please. Anyone who's so far gone that they want to kill themselves is under the influence of a pain that obscures ratonal thought. Yeah, it's selfish, but it's not a purely conscious act. Have some mercy.
