We've explained time and time again that you should put down the camera and not make that rap video. Apparently some clarification is in order: This goes for web startups, too. In fact, web startups should avoid music videos of any sort.

You missed a big nasty debate over the weekend about the extremely low number of women entrepreneurs and what's being done to change it.

All they need now is a pipe bomb, and they will never be scooped again. Tom & Jerry's is a dive bar near our office. It's also "Elaine's for the glittering digital set," "where everyone knows your Twitter handle."

Rachel Sklar, Mediaite's executive editor and resident Lady Gaga Penis Conspiracy-debunker, might've found her Watergate. She's making unconfirmed, shaky, but fascinating arguments for Beyonce playing a New Year's Eve show for Lindsay Lohan AND Libyan leader Muammar al-Gaddafi's kid.

What do Lady Gaga, Dan Abrams, Lady Gaga's Penis, and Rachel Sklar have in common with JFK? They're all out to shut down my Macarthur Grant-level work on the Lady Gaga Penis Conspiracy. Sklar claims to have done it.

In your conspiratorial Thursday media column: The New Yorker hates Brazil, Laurel Touby bids you farewell, Pinch Sulzberger ups his humor quotient, and sexism exists.

Nothing like a good dick joke, right? So says the hetero, who keeps going on about the Lady Gaga Penis Business. But Dan Abrams' henchwoman and Fearless Leader of Mediaite, Rachel Sklar, can't stop it with the vagina talk. Proof?

Stephanie Pratt called Perez Hilton worthless; Marlee Matlin dreaded reading Kanye West's lips and Rachel Sklar exposed her intimate side. The Twitterati ran hot and cold.

So, Mediaite's Rachel Sklar did a piece about cars. What? Yes: cars. Ray Wert at Gawker Media car blog Jalopnik posted on it. Sklar dove in the comments. Car people are insane. What do you think happened? Results pictured. Enjoy.

Salon columnist Glenn Greenwald posted a scathing column about the armistice between GE and News Corp meant to end Bill O'Reilly and Keith Olbermann's fueding. It's a chilling read, and brings in a tangentially related player: Richard Wolffe.

Mediaite henchperson Rachel Sklar: "No one is paying me to tweet this out from my personal Twitter. I just happen to like this sponsored post. [LINK]." For fuck's sake.

At around 1:30am Eastern time, Dan Abrams' Mediaite, his "Huffington Post meets Gawker" website, went live. We've been trying to take a look at it, but it keeps going down. Ah, growing pains!

Former Huffington Post media reporter and Dan Abrams' henchwoman Rachel Sklar is pissed at her friend, blogger-journalist Jeff Jarvis. Jarvis posted a now-infamous email of hers to his blog and absolutely lit her up in the process. Sklar fired back.

Dan Abrams is soon launching Mediaite, his very own "Drudge meets Huffington Post," which he'll certainly use to promote clients of his endlessly shady PR firm. He's now looking for contributors who, like him, have no qualms about selling out.

An addition to the Celebrity Media Intern Class of '09: Arielle Zuckerberg, the kid sister of Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg. She's indentured herself to Dan Abrams-affiliated media blog Mediaite.com. It hasn't launched yet, but we have an exclusive preview!

Not entirely sure what to make of this: The Daily Beast just posted video of Rachel Sklar and David Carr (henceforth known as SklarCarr) talking. It's weird. Especially when Carr notes that the New York Times doesn't need saving.
