Why Is Mark Halperin Naked On His Website?

Tuesday, January 15th, 2008

halperinrobe.jpgI went to find important political information regarding the Michigan race on The Page, the news-aggregation website led by horserace political journalism guru Mark Halperin. Instead I found his “PageCast” which just has him in a robe. This clearly bodes well for Ron Paul in the Michigan, the Penis State. [The Page]


DEMOCRATS

Debate Encourages Ad Hominem Racial Attacks

Tuesday, January 15th, 2008

not the jeff gannon versionAccording to that know-it-all Mark Halperin, tonight’s Demrat debate in Las Vegas will allow each candidate to ask other candidates two questions. And the focus will be on “black and brown” issues, since it’s Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday (which Hillary spent by making out with Lyndon Johnson’s grave). Given these format twists, it looks like Hillary and Barack won’t have to worry about that nasty racial tension anymore. [The Page]


TIME MAGAZINE

Time Magazine Promotes, We Surmise

Thursday, December 6th, 2007

Strange choicesThe Time Magazine Man of the Year roadshow rolled into D.C. this morning at an ungodly hour despite the snow to get D.C. opinion leaders’ opinions on who Time should’ve chosen (since they’ve probably already decided) besides You, you narcissistic bastard. To help not decide, they invited Senator Sam Brownback, Representative Ellen Tauscher and Time Magazine employees Mark Halperin and Karen Tumulty.

The Note is Dead

Monday, April 30th, 2007

Mark Halperin, former ABC News “Political Director,” is leaving the world of network punditry for the world of still appearing on TV constantly but with a different, more respectable little title on his chyron. That’s right, he’s going to Time. Eric Alterman’s head will explode. MORE »

The Midwest: It’s All the Same to The Note

Mark Halperin Pimps Book to 500 People With Review Copies

Friday, October 6th, 2006

Buy my book! Buy my book! -WonketteYesterday, distinguished members of the Gang of 500 received a very special email from Mark Halperin, author, founder of “The Note,” fellator of Drudge (after this week can we stop pretending Matt has an affect on the “news cycle” anymore? or, uh, The Note? or must we continue living in C-Span’s I Love the ’90s?). It was the usual bullshit (pretend memo from Hastert and Boehner’s offices), with a brief plug plea appended: MORE »
