The race to fill Ted Kennedy’s ample seat in the Senate is heating up like a corpse in the summer tide! (Sorry, Denby.) Curt Schilling, world champion quarterback for Boston’s “Mighty Ducks,” loves George W. Bush and jacking off in bloodstained sock, so he is qualified to be the Republican candidate. Schilling, heir to his [...]
DENBY ON THE OFFENSIVE: Hey, England! Don’t let the Bearded Sack of Lies pull a fast one on you, too, with this secret “U.K. release” of the tragic fapping pamphlet Snark. We would never make a joke about Ted Kennedy or Chelsea Clinton! [Guardian]
By the Comics CurmudgeonIf there is one thing guaranteed to enrage America’s arbiter of good taste, it is making any kind of snide remark about Ted Kennedy when he is ill or, in the current case, dead. Naturally, this rule has been flouted relentlessly for the past two days by the crassest, most awful people [...]
We will tread lightly here, lest we fall beneath the Malignant Eye of Denby, but: Christopher Dodd has early stage prostate cancer. The good news: if you had to have your pick of cancers, “early stage prostate” would probably be right up there on the list, as it is highly treatable and pretty much every [...]
Everyone remembers Dallas, Georgia’s mayor, Boyd Austin, whose wacky friends are always fiddlin’ with his Facebook status and posting confusing jokes that are just comprehensible enough to be considered in poor taste. Boyd: be warned that there is this uneducated boomer film critic in New York who will probably write a book about you when [...]
Did Rachel McAdams grow a terrorist neck-beard for her role as newspaper “gossipeuse” Ken Layne? These questions, and more: “Russell Crowe is in strong form as a star investigative reporter definitely of the old school, deftly handling the time-honored cliches of being poorly-dressed, ultra-messy, overweight, and driving a decidedly unstylish car. Rachel McAdams plays up [...]
Just two weeks ago, fancy “old gray woman” the New York Times produced a comical document instructing its various blog editors to Avoid Snark Or Die. Really, they did this, at the NYT. “What should be avoided in all of them is any hint of racist, sexist or religious bias, or any suggestion of nasty, [...]
Doctor Howard Dean got a new job! He will be a “regular contributor” on CNBC, the important business channel which features idiots screaming at each other all day as the stock market does whatever it does — up some days, down some days, etc. Today he did a guest-hosting deal, on some CNBC show. Maybe [...]
THIS IS A FINE READ: A tipster informed us earlier this week that he’d seen an advance copy of this Sunday’s New York Times Book Review riff on David Denby’s dumb book of lies. He referred to it as a “trashing.” Well the review is online now, and yes, it is very much a trashing: [...]
That Daily Kos blogger with delusions of being Dorothea Lange got us thinking … about how HAWT all those Depression Gals were, compared to, say, America’s current underclass. Amoral affair-having cancer-patient-exploiting day-trading parasitic hack David Denby will surely peck out a very outraged booklet, for Jezebel, about this Children’s Treasury of Dorothea’s Lange’s Sexiest Photographs. [...]
OH, DENBY’S STILL STINKING UP THE NPR SHOWS? Chronic masturbator and greedy day-trading halfwit David Denby continues to lie about his libel/slander against your Wonkette. Los Angeles Times book-blogger Carolyn Kellogg has an amusing update, and you can skip right ahead to 2:55 to see how Denby was telling more dumb lies on WNYC on [...]
TORTURE DAVID DENBY WITH TRUTH & ETHICS: Porn-addict day-trading slimeball David Denby continues his ignorant campaign of malice against Wonkette, on your public radio stations. Right now, he’s on Larry Mantle’s very good “AirTalk” show on Pasadena’s KPCC. Call in, be polite, get past those screeners, 1-866-893-5722, and MAKE DENBY CRY. [KPCC Airtalk]
Commenting On Commentary, With A Denby Cameo Because Of Course
by Juli Weiner 4:54 pm March 12, 2009
Let’s look at Commentary magazine, the famous neocon rag now edited by John Podhoretz, who can be easily analogized to Bill Kristol, I guess, for having a much more intelligent and talented father and then sort of soiling the family legacy in the name of pride and stupidity. Or hey, for a more zeitgeist-y example [...]
