Jezebel

New Gawker blog just launched: Jezebel. It's pitching itself as the anti-women's-mag mag. From an email: "Jezebel's mission is to cover celebrity, sex, and fashion for women -- without airbrushing. Think of it as the sort of women's media property that could never see the light of day in traditional print because the big-name advertisers and the publishers who kowtow to them don't much like it when someone points out the vulgarity of a $2,000 handbag." Doy, the editors are hot.

There are so many conflicts of editorial integrity at Jezebel one assumes that must be the point. Railing against women's magazines while spouting a newer/hipper/hotter form of meta flagellation is complete bullshit.
