Radar Online uses promoters. One named Mike emailed me about my Lohan post from July. He sent me a link to radar online. QED posted by Stynxno at 12:51 PM on August 24, 2007

BTW: I still don't understand why Dom's post stood. If he's Vice's "online guy" (the "Dom" on their staff page) aren't his posts to their stuff self-links? Was it not confirmed that he's the guy on their staff page? posted by Lentrohamsanin at 12:55 PM on August 24, 2007
I flunked his test, but self links aren't High School Musical, right? posted by weapons-grade pandemonium at 12:58 PM on August 24, 2007

I'll post your article on my blog, Ned Horsey! My 30+ readers will be very interested! posted by ThePinkSuperhero at 12:58 PM on August 24, 2007 [1 favorite]
Loosely confirmed that dom did some contracting/consulting stuff for them at one point but that's (in theory) the end of it. He was polite and straightforward when I talked to him, and knows not to even venture in that direction again. In the mean time, the post was going pretty well, people seemed to find the Fisk article pretty meaty, and, well, yeah. We just didn't kill the post. posted by cortex at 12:59 PM on August 24, 2007

I'm really worried about TPS, you guys. posted by Ambrosia Voyeur at 1:06 PM on August 24, 2007
Cortex, scarred and bleeding and wearing a tattered and stained wife-beater, looked down on the self-linker hanging for dear life to the ledge. Cortex paused briefly as he lifted the mighty banhammer. Hope flashed briefly across the self-linker's face. Was the youngest and least experienced of the mods going to make the naive mistake of showing him mercy, and thereby allow him to live to self-link again? Cortex calmly looked into the self-linker's face and said, "You think safety motherfucker."
Three of his five comments posted in the fifteen minutes before the self-link. Classy. posted by Armitage Shanks at 1:13 PM on August 24, 2007

Well, when you have a steady diet of monstrous crap, it tends to become you, no? You are what you eat, as they say. posted by Burhanistan at 1:17 PM on August 24, 2007 [1 favorite]
