Troubling instances of teen sexting have been all over the news as of late, with randy kids and their sexy messages and photographs often leading to public derision , expulsion, and sometimes even arrest . Thankfully, the disturbing trend among the nation's youth seems to be nearing an end. The primary reason? Because it looks like old people are getting into it . We know (gag), and we're sorry, but...

SOME PEOPLE ARE PUSHING THE STORY THAT HASAN WAS INVOLVED IN THE OBAMA TRANSITION, but that appears to be an unfair stretch. As you can see from the updates to this Gawker story, he seems to have attended some public events and gotten his name on a list of “participants,” but not to have [...]

The phrase 'man-made disaster' comes to mind. It would appear that the Fort Hood shooter assisted the Obama administration's transition planning for homeland security. Gawker does the heavy lifting for the lame-stream media:The gunman who killed 12 people today at Ft. Hood appears, based on current media reports, to be Army psychiatrist Nidal Hasan who was listed as a participant in a Homeland

Those recent wallet-busting lunch bills at Nello (Mikhail Prokhorov is said to have spent almost $19,000 and Jay-Z is said to have dropped $1,700 ) were small change compared to the $47,221 that Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich blew, according to a TMZ item that has now been removed. ("I'm not impressed. I'm happy," Nello Balan told the Post . "The only thing that would impress me...

spytap : mikehudack : At first I thought Web TV Dirt was a cool idea. Now I’m unfollowing. No more reblogs from me, guys! I never did. The last thing our - or really ANY - industry needs is another snarky Gawker/Perez knockoff posting “dirt” on who’s flirting/canoodling/fucking/probably just sitting next to whom. It’s not news, it’s not journalism, it’s “gossip”...

It's rare that The Daily Show devotes eight introductory minutes to one gag, but Jon Stewart's Glenn Beck impersonation — while it doesn't have that earnest fake-acty evangelical tone quite right — was clearly remarkable enough to deserve the airtime. Gawker's favorite parts are "references to old and discredited texts, the Founding Fathers, transparently phony stabs at nonpartisanship,...

Last night, the popular blog Gawker and a few other sources reported that Maj. Nidal Hasan, the Fort Hood shooter, participated in a White House-affiliated George Washington university think-tank paper on homeland security. It turns out, it was all wrong. Last night, I spoke with Frank Cilluffo, the director of G.W.'s Homeland Security Policy Institute and a Foreign Policy contributor, who explained...
