Economist Edward Hugh Gets Iced by Bro York Times

Icing gets the major media treatment in the Times, and the paper comes up with an even less-assertive take on icing probably not being a advertiser-run phenomena than ours of May 26. This is funny but only for two reasons: one, because the story originated at the advertising desk of the Business Section of the Times and yet it is apparently not about advertising at all. (OR IS IT!) Also funny because the story only made it to page B3. They couldn't bring themselves to front it-B1 had to make room for, among other things, "The Blog Prophet of Euro Zone Doom," which is a very interesting story about a person who maintains a blog, the URL of which the paper cannot bring itself to mention at all, though it finally names another and links, in the penultimate paragraph, to his Facebook. Edward Hugh! Come on down.

(We expect an update later. When he gets out of the hospital, I guess.) Will this nightmare never end? No, because here are Salon's Alex Pareene, Gawker's Hamilton Nolan and NY1's Roger Clark getting iced at the mini-putt.

Breaking: Icing of Bro Committed At Goldman Sachs

BREAKING NEWS UPDATE: We have just received word that an "icing" in fact has taken place among bros at Goldman Sachs. Our original statement of this morning that no icings have yet taken place at Goldman has been altered; we regret the error and also, wow, are you kidding? And here is the Wieden-Kennedy interoffice memo that is oddly pro icing. Suspicious! [UPDATE: Um, that memo has just been disappeared from the Voice's website. SUSPICIOUSER. ANOTHER UPDATE: here's the cache of the memo.]

From time to time, we offer free editorial space to common folk with something to say. This is one such time, in which a fratty bro of our acquaintance explains what exactly is going on with bros. Spoiler: It's not good! READ MORE
