Horrifying Seattle PI Web Launch Party Astounds

by Choire posted @10:30 AM

IT IS A LITTLE 1980 TO HAVE SOMEONE DRESS UP AS YOUR LOGOThis account of the launch party for SeattlePI.com, which is the website that used to be a newspaper in Seattle, is so horrifying. For just one thing, it's disturbing to find out that the editor of their site's most popular blog ("by a factor of 10") has a day job! What the fuck! They can't pay him a living wage? (Secondarily, his day job is installing software for a military contractor. Which means he works for Skynet.) Anyway, everything else about this party is so much worse!

    If only I could see his fetching little North Pole cap. Is the South Pole, uh….oh never mind.

    They have the New York Times of police blogs–Seattle 911–with five different reporters!– which is all I want out of a local paper.

    I shall hire that adorable young man to be an olive in my next martini.
