DUBIOUS HONORS

Monday, January 5th, 2009

DEVELOPING LONG & HARD ....SARA K. SMITH IS PRESIDENT OF DRUDGE REPORT: Your favorite Wonkette editrix is also writing comical blog posts serious journalism for NBC in, uh, New York. And Los Angeles. And she got a DRUDGE LINK for her very first piece, about how lonely puritanical Democrats don’t have any Sexy Scandals — it’s right there in bold, italic and underline in the right-hand column. This is the equivalent of winning the Pulitzer/Nobel/Oscar times 1 billion on your first day at work. [NBC New York/NBC Los Angeles/Drudge Report]

NONE OF YOU PEOPLE DO ACTUAL WORK, DO YOU? Click the little picture here and you will see something remarkable: More than 500 of you nuts are playing this little EcoDriving game widget deal, and you’ve accumulated nearly 15 million points. The closest competition doesn’t even have a half-million points, while losers who read Talking Points Memo and Power Line and, presumably, fivethirtyeight.com (Nate’s EcoDrivers?) actually have scores lower than any human math can represent.

MORE CAMPAIGN DISCOURSE: Oh look, it’s Ben Smith of the Politico and your editor doing one of these New York Magazine things.

(We blame past management.) Now it works! We still have no idea what the Twitter does, but 550 people have subscribed to it, even though it didn’t work, so now everybody can unsubscribe, the end.
