Live Nude Rising Stars!

Monday, February 12th, 2007

Journalism's navel won't gaze at itself! - WonketteFishbowlDC is concluding its “Rising Star” contest. We’re not entirely clear on what the contestants were competing for, or what qualifies one as a rising star, but it seems to involve internet polls. And, naturally, massive voter fraud. As can be expected, it quickly became a popularity contest, with someone from something called “Two Mundos Magazine” duking it out with Kara Rowland, an attractive metro reporter from that bastion of respectable journalism, the Washington Times.

As the polls close, it looks like Kara’s gonna take it. Kara won! What put her over the edge? Her work on September 11 widows? Her series on utility regulations in Maryland? Sure, that shit’s ok, but we think it just might’ve been the Facebook picture we’ve attached after the jump.

Terrifying True ‘Times’ Tales

Tuesday, December 26th, 2006

George Archibald, former Washington Times man, has a lengthy and entertaining behind-the-scenes look at the recent ouster at that venerable paper of Washington Times Corp. Vice President Jonathan Slevin. From there, Archibald goes into a rich history of smoking weed with Fran Coombs, Moonies vs. unreconstructed confederates, and, because this is the Times, perverts: MORE »


‘Times’ Perv Pleads Guilty

Tuesday, November 21st, 2006

Washington Times perv Randall Casseday had the misfortune to be caught just days before Mark Foley ushered in our fondly-remembered Cocktober. In case you don’t remember (and who’d blame you), Casseday was the director of Human Resources for the unread but beloved right-wing paper, until he was fired for attempting to meet underage girls for illegal sexing. We did solicit reports of his creepy behavior at the Times, but the most we could get was that he enjoyed telling everyone what everyone else was making and alerting people to firings and promotions before they happened. Also, he was kinda creepy. MORE »


Washington Times Bravely Declares Victory In Iraq

Monday, November 20th, 2006

Washington ‘Times’ Racism, Pedophilia, Sexism Roundup

Friday, September 29th, 2006

Our good buddy Max Blumenthal has an update to his Washington Times story, mostly about Randall Casseday, former HR director for the WT who was arrested in a federal sting this week for attempted kiddie-fucking. The story: former Times flack Melissa Hopkins was the lucky recipient of the unwanted affections of Managing Ed Fran Coombs (male, despite name). After the ol’ “come up to my hotel room for a nightcap” bit, Fran pulled the always-successful “force yourself on her in a taxi” routine.

Enter the pedophile, after the jump.
