  • Our West Coast blogging brother, FishbowlLA takes a look at Jared Paul Stern‘s Web site for clues, and finds a “glimpse of bribe-lust.” Writes Stern: “An advance copy of the December Vogue hit our desk the other day with this heinous new Paris Hilton Guess ad on the inside cover … The question is not, ‘Can we afford you?’ but “How much will it cost to make you go away?’”

  • Some criticize Fox News’ coverage of the scandal — involving a gossip columnist who works for the Rupert Murdoch-owned New York Post — or lackthereof.
