Who Is Really The Hottest Media Type In D.C.?
Wednesday, August 13th, 2008
Local media insider blog FishbowlDC for the past few weeks has been holding its annual “Hottest Media Types” competition and yesterday, after 512 nominations, intense voting, you name it, they announced the winners. And WOW, we knew the Washington press crowd wasn’t exactly a model shoot, but… seriously? Has it always been this bad? For what it’s worth, we think it’s a crime that a certain someone didn’t make the cut. He’s a known slut, and he happens to be the editor of FishbowlDC itself: Patrick Gavin, seen here mocking poor old Henry Kissinger in a Wonkette archive photo. Gavin is always drunk and unprofessional and we have more photographic proof of this that we’ve been using as blackmail for months. Well, he stopped paying us a week ago, so here goes. MORE »

It was quite the star-studded affair in Washington D.C. Saturday evening for the annual White House Correspondents Dinner, perhaps the District’s biggest social night of the year. This is the one where journalists and the politicos they cover congregate in an overt celebration of their inappropriate friendships — you know, the ones that caused the Iraq War. All of America can drink to that! Obviously the public-at-large wouldn’t care about a journalism party — they are not for the soft-at-heart, or people who have lives — if it weren’t for the WHCD’s other strange attraction, the liberal Hollywood Movie Star guests! Your Wonkette’s associate editor and videographer/Polaroidist Liz Glover donned our best church clothes Saturday to witness the proceedings, and all we got were strange memories and a wretched purple umbrella that says “Bloomberg.” The troubling story, below! 
Attention spendy Republicans: for just $1000 you can hang out with President Bush at the Connecticut home of evil old war criminal Henry Kissinger next weekend. And for an extra $10,000, you can even get your picture taken with the proud alcoholic 
This week, Mia Farrow, Mike Arcuri, John Boehner, Byron Dorgan, Marc Racicot, Henry Kissinger, Peter Welch, Charlie Rose, Bill Frist, Don Cheadle, Kal Penn, and Adam Kokesh were all spotted being various degrees of famous at various places by our spies and operatives.

Imagine a White House full of scheming backstabbing power-mad global criminals — you know, but not right now. Earlier, like from 1969 to 1974. That’s when the hilarious duo of Henry Kissinger and his meathead drunken buddy Richard Nixon were president.
Say you’re a demented old warmonger interested in literally destroying the United States and much of the rest of the world. Who do you call for that extra little bit of totally illegal and amoral crazy? That’s right, you call Henry Kissinger.
