Wonkette

So much for the emergence of new media? Is this the ultimate blogger endgame, hang in there long enough to get old media credentials and a 401K?

I'm looking forward to the expanded ass-fucking coverage at Time.com already.

Yes, i have a distinct feeling that time.com will now run with a Parental Advisory sticker... America won't know what hit em.

and backwards ran the sexuality until reeled the mind.

But the question is, will this new Time mag. post finally bring the FHM-style bikini spread of Ana that we've all been waiting for with baited breath?

I don't care where you're from. That's a lovely woman.

I actually like AMC's writing. Or did at Suck and various other venues. Anyway, I wish her the best.

But I love how the mainstream media loves to say it's all balanced and objective and not liberal . . . and then mainstream flagship Time puts self-proclaimed Lefty McLiberalson AMC as the new Wash Editor?

Not surprising to most of us but maybe the mainstream media and its liberal supporters should think of how the reputation is earned.

And yes, I'm a reporter and know of what I speak.

never has so young done so much, with so little.

or something like that.

Congrats to AMC, but I was kinda secretly hoping for a Maxim-esque *or better* photo spread in the future.

Sigh ;(

congrats to both time and ms cox, bitter denunciations to the amount of clothing she's wearing. my expectations are so high, i might even pick up a copy once in a while.

Congrats, AMC! Also, might I add that erstwhile Wonkette guest-bloggers make the BESTEST freelancers? Oops, now the cat's out of the bag.

Bet she's glad that she didn't pose with Jessica now.

But keep in mind, Time, Inc. includes Sports Illustrated. So the possibility of Wonkette Emerita spread over a two page gatefold wearing nothing but body paint remains a possibility for the swimsuit issue.

And in my dreams tonite.

AMC, please come back and save your blog...no?
Ohhhhh, you're one of those money-whores I've been hearing so much about. Well, all the best to you. Your sharp words are missed here, that's for sure.

Major congrats to AMC.

Here's hoping she remembers us little people and tipsters from back in the day, when we were younger and ever-vigilant for a sighting of Mark Shields.

Hmm, is this a good thing or a bad thing? I mean, I love Ana Marie (from a distance: I'm not a lesbian or anything) but isn't Time's gain a huge loss for Blogsville?

I hate to put the brakes on this little love-fest, but does anyone even read time.com?

i don't read time.com, but i plan to look at the pictures...you never know!

What is it with bloggers, ass fucking and Time? Didn't Sullivan sign up with them too?

But anyway, I emailed her a tip once, and she blogged it. Totally hope she mentions me to the Pulitzer committee or something. Congrats to AMC!

Congrats, Ana Marie, you fine-assed snarky-comment-making lady. I know you'll make Time.com a whole lot cooler than it is now.

Our little girl is all grown up.

(sniff)

Oh God please let her blog in on Time's blog area. Sullivan has it all to himself and I can't stand his sentimentalist conservative wailings any longer.

Seriously folks, how many of you have cracked open a copy of Time like, ever? And waiting room reading does not count. Is this the real effect of the new media, that they act like microwaves to reheat and refresh long-moribund projects like Time, the National Review and the Village Voice?
What next; the US News and World Report?

To my mind, AMC and Sullivan joining forces at Time is more a triumph for Surrealism than for liberalism, neowhateverism or whatever it is that bovvers Miss Cookie.

Way to go!!!

Hopefully she'll still be humbe enough to drink me under the table again at the 2008 RNC!

It's your mind that exites me, Ana. And I fear your mind will not find expression at boring old Time magazine. The writing there is: BORING.

Why aren't you blogging for the New Yorker? I'd love to see what that old guy with the tophat might come up with.

"Ran into Mrs. Peabody at tea. Frightful old bag. She positively smelled of ass, and I did her a favor and told her she needed to be more careful about her wiping. I don't care whose sister-in-law she is."

will she quit referring so proudly from now on to her "long, disastrous career" in the mainstream media?

Congrats...I'd rather have someone who "gets it" in a mainstream venue, than on an (although fantastic) out of the way blog.
