    This is hypocritical. Newsroom employees weren't allowed to utter a word about their political leanings during the Neverending Election -- even on election night, as the results were coming in, newsroom employees were told to suppress their smiles because you guys might find out that the results made some of us happy and photos of smiling Timesians would be plastered throughout the blogosphere. But this? It's like they're riding the wave of Obamania to increase circulation. Opportunistic, no?

    Q: This is for Jodi. Why aren't you in Washington?

    KANTOR: Um...

    Q: And, Ms. Abramson, why isn't this a pop-up book?

    ABRAMSON: Because we didn't have the budget for a pop-up.

    Q: And yet you flew Ms. Kantor in.

    ABRAMSON: Um...

    Q: And you, Mr. Winter. On the cover. Is that a pool photo?

    WINTER: Um...

    Q: I mean, look at his pantlegs. That's hardly a flattering shot.

    WINTER: I'm a photojournalist for the Times, not Annie fucking Leibovitz.

    Q: Well if you are fucking Annie Leibovitz, she should at least tell you how to shoot a proper photo.

    WINTER: Excuse me?

    Q: No I won't. And Michael, I miss the "B" section. Did you have to kill the B section?

    POWELL: Look, do you want us to autograph your copy or not?

    Q: Yes, please!

    HEY, gawkers! my little brothers and i (or me? --fuck) are watching all this election stuff unfold on the internets, and we remember this craaazay video with a mccain supporter who was adamant that she just needed to "pray" for everyone, including her husband who was voting obama. (she made it sound like a threat) does anyone else remember this/can you find it for me? thanks! a 16yearold girl and her 5 younger brothers will be very happy. and amused. and no doubt somewhat frightened.

    oh jeeeez my first gawker comment was hardly succinct. ohwell!

    Amazing that the first African-American President is a Senator from Illinois, just like President Lincoln.

    @Unfun: O, hai. I almost invoked your name a moment ago against a commenter who insinuated that The Clash are part of an anti-Obama conspiracy.

    I didn't. But I did tell them to take it back.
