FishbowlDC's Betsy Rothstein Prints Hilarious Racist Joke, Because 'Class'
How has our sultry seductress pal Betsy Rothstein, editoresse of MediaBistro's FishbowlDC, been making the universe better today? Well, The Hill came out with its 50 Most Beautiful Washington Gargoyles Thingy today, and it was terrible and stupid! So Betsy and her minions came up with a Mean Girls-styley slambook about how everyone in it is ugly and gross, which is true.
But -- whoops! -- can you spot the problem with Betsy's shtick? We bet you cannot, because "subtle."

I read your comment and you really made my head hurt.

Intent used to be important. Now, for most people, it seems to be all about how someone else took it.
Intent has been devalued down to nothing.
