David Geithner is married -- to a woman -- and, more relevantly, is a CFO at media conglomerate Conde Nast, which the nobodies at Gawker consider to be their enemy, because useless, talentless marginal people enjoy imagining themselves in epochal wars with people who actually matter. This is the basic mental defect at the heart of stalking. The post was particularly nasty, for several reasons. For one, it went it much, overmuch lurid detail about their chat sessions, setting this rendezvous up, when it was journalistically sufficient to merely say They arranged for a meeting (which Geithner later backed out of.) For another, who the hell is David Geithner? He is a nobody. So why do we need to know this, other than for the cruelty of watching another human animal in pain? For a third, I repeat, the tryst didn't even happen. For a fourth, the circumstances of this situation suggest a shakedown; Geithner was apparently unwilling or unable to help the porn star with his problem (he was being evicted from his apartment, for being a gay porn star), and, I don't know, all of a sudden this guy says Sacred Honor compelled him to squeal to Gawker. As a side wrinkle here: Ted Cruz was actually helping that guy with his eviction case; apparently he's a vet who claims PTSD. So as a weird side thing, Ted Cruz is the hero here, the guy in the story who did nothing wrong. Though I don't know if he'll continue trying to help this "Ryan" character. Media outrage was swift and universal, including from me, who observed that Gawker was a would-be blackmailer's Safety School. Then Gawker began self-justifying, claiming, preposterously, that they were just offended by someone in a media c-suite (corporate suite) cheating on his wife. Right. The bottomfeeders at Gawker are all about the sanctity of the marital vow, huh? And if they cared a damn about the wife, they could have passed her this information privately, discretely. But they wanted the clicks, the notoriety, the scalp. What they got was a meltdown. In crisis mode, with vomitous revulsion at Gawker rising in the throats of the entire world, they backed away from their Avenging Populist Hero justification and their board voted 5-1 to remove the piece; * Nick Denton issued some bullshit bullshit piece about how Gawker has matured now, or something, and now is too credible a source to be publishing stories like this. But a lot of damage has been done -- one outfit went so far as to begin offering $2500 bounties for information that would wreck a Gawker writer's career ($5000 if it involved a crime). Adland described Gawker as having gone from "toxic" to "radioactive." Wired writes all this up, and you can check my work against theirs, but I think I've brought you up to date. Daily Caller has an interview with a guy who doesn't admit to being the gay hustler in question but who sure seems to think Gawker is "brave" for publishing their account. * Call me cynical, but I believe the vote was deliberately made to be 5-1, as opposed to 6-0, for the same reason Gabe opined the John Doe 2 prosecutors won't be sanctioned: If the vote were unanimous, there might be more of a chance of legal exposure. So they needed that "1" vote to show that someone claims this is newsworthy. Maybe They Felt, Legally, They Needed 2: The one holdout was the editor who had approved the story; perhaps they felt his vote wasn't enough, as he was personally compromised. So Sgt York reports, they've gotten it up to 2 votes in favor of the piece's newsworthiness:Check the update at Wired, they've revised the tally to 4-2, to include Heather Deitrich, Gawker's legal counsel, as one of the voices of dissent...further attempting to legitimize their running of the story.Ah, the Legal Counsel. Perfect. Because... Hulk Hogan is currently in trial against Gawker for revealing private material to the public (a sex tape). Gawker deliberately posting private facts about non-public persons would go a long way to show a pattern and practice that would lead to punitive damages.that's bsbk's input. #HulkHoganTakeTheWheel!

USA today had an interesting take on this. They just said "He had asked Ted Cruz for help." As if the guy knows Ted Cruz. Didn't contextualize it by saying he asked Ted Cruz's constituent outreach for help. Nope, USA had to go about implying Ted Cruz is personal friends with a gay porn star.

Here's my .02 worth of spitballing on this issue.
Gawker thinks Geithner guilty of the most horrendous crime; closeted gayness. They make a point of mentioning his wife at home, and the gay nature of the hookup he was seeking. That's unfuckingforgivable these days. If you want gay, go gay and be proud, all those years of marriage be damned! But don't try to hide behind that starched collar, you gay suits, we will find you, and we will shame you. Not for the gayness, but trying to hide it. I really think that's the not-so-underlying motive here. Posted by: OneEyedJack at July 17, 2015 08:42 PM (XmOA9) 32

Most SoCons (as we have been called) would prefer that people keep their various sins to themselves. In this case, he did. Gawker, OTOH, felt the need to shove it all in our faces. Generally, gossip is considered a sin, as well. So, mostly, we try to avoid it. Unfortunately, it is a sin most well suited to us girls, just like porn is one most well suited to guys. Both items are readily available, in fact plentiful, on the net. None of that is a good thing. Posted by: tcn at July 17, 2015 08:44 PM (+YMhA) 43

I feel vindicated as I stopped reading any Gawker Media sites about a year ago. I used to read Deadspin pretty regularly because I work in the sports media industry and they occasionally had stuff that was interesting and related to my work. Eventually it just dawned on me that reading their shit was just draining. It was just a bunch of lefty outrage that was tangentially sports-related dressed up as news. Decided then not to visit their sites again. It's not about not giving a bad site your business. (I doubt they made much off of my visits anyway.) It's about not consuming garbage.

I have a different take on the "I don't care" angle. To me, it shows equality - something gays have (supposedly) long sought. I don't care about the entire scandal, same as I wouldn't care about an aborted 'straight' tryst. It's bottom-feeding (as noted) targeted against people I neither know of nor care to, and thus, I really don't care. the tragedy is that people make a living about it.

Second of all, fuck Gawker, I hope that crimes were committed which will involve jail time on top of more massive lawsuits (HULKAMANIA!) to finally coffin nail this mutant carnival sideshow that passes itself off as a 'media organization.'

I've read some movie reviews there before but there was always some toxic left-wing quackery in the comments. As for Gawker, I think I've been there once. I usually visit Reddit a few times a day for an unresolved mysteries subreddit and occasionally the movies subreddit. There news page is joke. It's abusive cops, marijuana legalization stories, global warming crap, and anti-Israel stuff. Posted by: Dack Thrombosis at July 17, 2015 08:55 PM (oFCZn) 107

among the associated stories today is Perez Hilton expressing regrets for that and saying he hasn't done it since 2010.

This post leaves out another relevant piece of information. Hulk Hogan is currently in trial against Gawker for revealing private material to the public (a sex tape).

Back in my wild yoot in LA, when I was still scurrying around the American Film Market and such hustling screenplays, there was a sudden flurry of excitement when Orlando, Florida suddenly became a big TV/film production hub. There was talk of it becoming Hollywoo East with all the majors opening up shop there.
Instead what happened was every cheap grifter who couldn't break out in LA and could afford a plane ticket rushed out there to hustle the yokels and generally stink up the joint. Today, those grifters are stinking up the Internet in the form of Huffpos, Gawkers, Reddits and pretty much most of Facebook and Twitter.

I suppose if someone wants to go after me for some supposed scandal they could, except that I'm not having gay hookups and my life is fairly dull. However if they did go after me I might not know about it as except for here I have the lowest social media profile of almost anyone I know. I have a name on Facebook. I've never posted anything there so I should probably delete it. I keep getting this lame things everybody does like, "Do you know_____ ?" "Ahhh, yes, I'm rather sorry to say and they probably feel the same way about me" or "Nope; I don't recognize the name" or "They have my e-mail address and phone number. They can just call me". I don't tweet, don't use any other of the more cutting edge tech social media things. Don't do "linked in". Wouldn't be able to hear about myself on TV if I tweeted pictures of my private parts to some 20 something kid because i don't have a TV that works. They could still come bang on my door, of course.

reported their management team voted 5 to 1 to remove the post with Gawker Media Executive Editor Tommy Craggs as the lone dissenter. The site has since corrected its own post to say that the vote was 4 to 2 with Heather Dietrick, the President and Chief Legal Counsel of Gawker Media, also dissenting." Gawker: See, this story is totally legit because the lawyer didn't want it removed. Lawyers know about legal stuff. So we agonized over removing the story and then Nick decided to write that pandering bullshit piece and we all went out for drinks hoping Hulk Hogan would get in a car accident sometime soon...

One thing not mentioned is that "outting" is old hat. Yes, the gay left has put a social justice spin on it in recent years but it's mostly just that gay guys are bitchy gossips.
Of course, there have been equally credible stories for years that both Obama and Hillary are closeted gays in sham marriages. However, they are both useful to the cause, so no one will definitively out either of them. The Newsweak (sic) story declaring Obama the "first gay president" always seemed like a sly acknowledgement that the rumor is true. Posted by: Commissar M at July 17, 2015 09:38 PM (KSF9t) 281

Mentaly unstable and is buying into the cultural cache of being part of a new fad movement? Naaaaah, self hating closeted gay.

275 Personally I think it's a cop out to claim being an asshole is just a persona they're playing. Howard Stern is one of the worst .
--- It can be a cop out. Howard Stern is (I think) still doing his schtick, so that's kind of different. I don't think you can *keep* being an asshole for, what, 30 years and still claim it's a character. But Perez and ace both made an effort to stop playing that character---or perhaps, to rewrite their character into someone else.

Regarding "outing" somebody because they won't embrace the bliss that perfuses the ghey lifestyle, matters are beginning to sink to the absurdity level of the South Park episode where "They took our jobs!" was an oft-spoken refrain. The solution to keeping the alien humans from the future from showing up to steal the jobs was for all males presently alive to turn actively homosexual, thereby shutting down procreation and, eventually, preventing the future aliens from existing at all.

#235 Mixing Californians with Floridians is actually more toxic than mixing Floridians and New Yorkers. Hard to believe but there it is. Posted by: richard mcenroe at July 17, 2015 09:35 PM (Kucy5) Florida was utterly wrecked by the huge out-of-state influxes. It's like what's happening with illegal immigration on the national scale. A never-ending stream of people pushes property prices up where you can't afford them on normal-people wages, makes wages stagnate, makes it nearly impossible to find a decent job, and votes for things that you absolutely abhor and there's nothing you can do about it. Don't go thinking that today's "Floridians" are real Floridians. Most of the ones I knew who were born there, like I was, were at least talking about leaving. Nobody liked what the state's become, and I'm glad to be a Texan now. Unlike FL's influx, I was happy to abandon my old identity and absorb a new one. And of course, I already vote like a Texan, so that won't be an issue either. Posted by: Cato the Rebel Without a Party at July 17, 2015 09:51 PM (HalrA) 322

First, just to be clear, so both the bus and the train were carrying hazmat and retarded clowns?
Second, I wouldn't exactly call the CFO of Conde Nast and Turbotax Tim's little brother a purely private figure, but still, was that worth it for them? Posted by: Rich Fader at July 18, 2015 02:10 AM (LeeQi) 383
Doesn't the press kind of routinely divulge who is sleeping with who, who posted a dick pic, and who cheated on who? People are outing others left and right, I thought.
I'm not saying it's okay, I'm just confused why this one was drawing the line? I don't see Geitner as so obviously a private figure as some others do. It's all kind of sick, but this just kind of par for the course these days. I wasn't outraged or full of approval, either way. Posted by: Tommy V at July 18, 2015 03:33 AM (NBoRH) 384
I thought John-shaming was one of the ways to combat prostitution. I've seen newspapers publish special summary lists of men (mostly) arrested for solicitation. Or is John-shaming only suitable for heterosexuals?
Were they wrong, too? Posted by: ErisGuy at July 18, 2015 04:46 AM (wqv11) 385
Something not mentioned is the only reason the SJWs jumped all over this, and the only reason Gawker pulled it (they could really give a shit if conservatives hate them) is because it concerned gay sex. Trans and gays are virtually untouchable these days, and criticizing or otherwise acknowledging gay sex is in any way icky is just not acceptable. In fact, the left seems to be pushing that gay and trans is the "new normal" and that normals are the new freaks.
Which brings up another thing. If groups get to choose what to be called and what not to be called I'd like to start a movement that I'm offended being called "cis-gender". It just sounds creepy and wrong. I prefer "normal" or "sane". Posted by: docweasel at July 18, 2015 08:03 AM (XxzcU) 386
it's almost as if they think there's something embarrassingly pervertedly wrong with being homo.
if it's normal, how can you be outed for it? Posted by: X at July 18, 2015 10:26 AM (foEhe) Processing 0.04, elapsed 0.0547 seconds. |
