    Apparently the Cincinnati station has at least made some kind of attempt. I went to their website and after watching a couple of "sexting" videos without the offending pic, I started finding some "unavailable".

    Lesson learned: If at first you don't succeed, sue.
    That'll get their attention, for sure.

    Nothing makes me madder than when those stupid subscription cards fall out of the "green" issues of magazines. It makes me do a whole "Really?!?!?! by Seth and Amy" in my head.

    File video always gets used to death because editors don't have time to hunt fresh sources for stories that are sort of staples in shows. Every story on obesity features the same 10-12 fat people walking around with their heads cut off. Apparently no one has been captured on tape smoking since 1982. And there's a clip of credit cards from banks that don't exist anymore that's always popular for stories about overspending during the holidays.

    Um, if I read the source piece correctly, it's not "a picture of her" that's the rub, but a picture of a sext she sms-ed from her mobile phone--in response to another sext that a TV station employee (+ good friend of hers) sent to her. The TV friend took a photo of the sext on her/his OWN phone, and somehow that pic featured the full name of the plaintiff.

    Right? Am I nuts?

    @snugbug: I'm not sure if it's possible to read the source correctly - the illustrious author/blogger misspelled Cincinnati 3 of the 4 times used in the post. I had a hard time parsing what she was trying to say.

    @trustsatan: OMG, citizen copy-editor, you are so right! Cookie for you.
    Maybe it's a British vs. American English spelling thing, whereby they call it "Cincinnatti" at the Hong Kong outpost of the International Herald Tribune, where Ms. illustrious blogger contributed in the past?

    When I was a journalism major at NYU, I would do my best to help out my classmates by responding to the e-mail requests for interviewees. One of the articles that quoted me got picked up by a legit news source, which was then copied onto a bunch of different blogs, and now, if you Google me, the first thing you'll see is some bitchy quote from "New York City single (which I wasn't, but they didn't ask) [DahlELama]" about people who talk on cell phones on dates. Frankly, I wouldn't mind if that stopped following me around, and that's nowhere near as bad as being the poster child for sexting.

    I've never seen any of the "Mouthpiece Theater" bits, but I have enjoyed some of the videos that Milbank has produced under his "Washington Sketch" umbrella.

    Sure, you knew that he could only go so far and maintain his credibility, but he was out there in the field with a video camera and because the tab was being underwritten by his written words, he could waste a few minutes doing a subtle, not laugh-out-loud or "Daily Show" level amusement.

    The Daily Show won't be calling you, Dana -- ever. So put the toy video camera away and go back to writing your incomprehensible drivel where you can artfully suggest that Hillary is a "mad bitch."

    "hoppy" is an overwrought term used to describe certain beers

    !?

    Like... beers that have a lot of hop flavor? Is "dry" an overwrought term for describing wine?

    But yes, Milbank is a dick.

    Maybe his bitterness, misogyny and lack of humor comes from growing up as a boy named "Dana". It all goes back to the schoolyard with a lot of these Beltway types.

    Beltway journalists are the only ones amused or invested in "Hillary is a Bitch!" anymore.

    Republicans have the birth certificate to stoke their nuts. Comedians and DailyKos have Sarah Palin providing fresh material weekly. Everyone else is "Yawn, 1994 wants its jokes back."
