Has Gawker Spooked Fox News?

Fox News has declared Gawker “dead or dying,”reporting that the site’s traffic is down 75%, though that doesn’t appear to be even close to the truth. The erroneous numbers were first mentioned on the Fox News website yesterday, then repeated by Steve Doocy on Fox and Friends this morning. There are so many legitimately negative things to say about Gawker, why make one up?

John Cook is pretty sure it’s his fault:

I have for several weeks been working on a story about a Fox News personality that Fox News really does not want published! Fox knows what the story is, because I’ve asked its PR department for comment (they refused).

Gawker will publish the story next week, and we will be personally contributing to their web traffic.

Cindy McCain Knows Her Geography

We keep reading in the press that republican VP nominee Sarah Palin is like Dan Quayle. Dan Quayle is one of our favorite political figures of all time. Mainly because he made more gaffes than Joe Biden on a bender.

Cindy McCain, during an interview with George Stephanopoulos that aired yesterday was asked about Palin’s national security experience (or lack there of). She said,”Alaska is the closest part of our continent to Russia, so it’s as if she doesn’t know what’s at stake here.”

This, of course was echoing Fox News’ Steve Doocy saying that Palin (who didn’t get her passport until 2007) does have international experience because Alaska is right next to Russia.

Which does remind us of ol’ Dan Quayle saying,”I love California, I practically grew up in Phoenix.

Yay! We have another 9 weeks of this stuff!
