    "There is nothing worse than the awkward wake up next to a girl, who is not as hot as you thought she was when you were 12 deep the night before." Just imagine how she feels waking up to your mug, Chris! Why is it that ugly guys feel entitled to bang hot chicks even though his face looks like an asshole?

    I just got stiffed by a college on a teaching gig, if anyone cares. They won't even give me my Greyhound fare home. #media

    Figures he'd be wearing a Red Sox cap. Amazing, too, that a guy who's probably never been laid in his life would write a column about getting laid. #media

    Yeah, I know some people--all women--who worked for Gawker Media full-time and were subsequently laid off because Nick and Gabe have a chilling fear of women. When they applied for unemployment insurance, Nick claimed they were "contract workers" and didn't qualify, despite the fact that they worked full-time, had no other primary means of support, and were required to attend regular staff meetings just as if they were the tech staffers who are paid as full-time employees. The State of NY found against Denton for the one woman who brought it to court. But how can the other women get justice from these sleezy cowards who flaunt state and federal law in order to save a few bucks? #media

    @ian spiegelman:

    But Jezebel is part of Gawker Media and almost everyone (maybe even everyone) who works at Jezebel is female so I think its just a fluke there are no women posting stories on Gawker at the moment. #media

    @Oryx Hearts Crake: Um. Gawker.com hasn't had a female writer or editor since they fired Sheils almost a year ago. Jezebel is Gawker's female news website. Gawker itself has a sickening history regarding employees and state law. Which they will pay for.

    Pointing out that Gawker has an auxiliary site "for women" proves nothing. Are you, by the way, employed by Gawker? Because if you are, your comment can be considered collusion. Do you want to collude with Nick and that coward Gabe? I kind of think you don't.

    Rethink your position. And everyone else. When the State and the Fed come calling, would you like to keep your cash, or do you want to spend it protecting Nick and his little dog Gabe?

    If you want to keep it, run from here. #media

    Maybe instead of charging the paper with harassment, Fairfield University could close The Mirror down for failing completely at its mission statement. I get that newspapers are a dying medium, but editors are still supposed to edit and journalists are still supposed to have some basic understanding of grammar, punctuation, syntax, and how to craft a narrative.

    On the other hand, that article definitely makes a fierce case for abstinence, so maybe the Society of Jesus is having the last laugh here. #media

    I heard, from a friend that worked at New York Press a few years ago that they were always very late paying writers and freelancers. There was one writer who had to have a letter sent from a lawyer threatening legal action if he wasn't paid.

    Given the state of publishing and the fact the NYP is now owned by a company that owns a bunch of rags that no one reads, they're probably having the same problem now. #media
