Gossip Site TMZ Focuses on Washington
For those of you that don't know TMZ is like the Enquirer of the Internet. If you want to see a star doing something crazy, this is the place you go. Not really my cup of tea, but according to NPR it's all the rage among men, which I was going to dispute and then I remembered all the pictures of the wardrobe malfunctions on the site and when put in that prospective I guess I could buy that argument. Anyway, I digress.
TMZ has decided to expand their operations from the West Coast to the nations capital. That's right folks the same kind of "impeccable" journalism will now be applied to our nations most powerful group. Not sure there is going to be the same draw for wardrobe malfunctions when dealing with the oldest Congress in American history, but it might be useful if the people back home got to see some of the rampant misbehaviors of their politicos. They claim that they are going to be including their staff members as well in their investigations and if you happen to catch a politico in some sort of misconduct make sure you ship them the video. You get how this goes I suspect.
In the end, I think this will probably be most devastating to the Republicans, who have been used to their friends in the right wing media covering up all their missteps for them, but it will provide endless fodder for bloggers and the likes of Wonkette. We shall see how it works out.
Listen over at NPR.
