Michael Tyler’s Take On Cash Flaunting Cragislister

An anomaly in Hollywood, musician and contemplative actor James Tyler (Gunther on Friends) reacts to Gawker’s recent Shutter Shades Producer “These Photos Are Mines” post that generated almost as many vitriolic comments as the Emily article and brings us the Quote of the Day:

“It’s continually astounding how deep and wide the cultural divide can seem at a distance. It is equally affirming to recognize that the chasm may be breached by a few well placed words of wisdom.”

Now we understand why Tyler has been offered an artist in residence fellowship at a prominent university in the UK.

NY Mag Piece Leaks Kelly Rippa and Harvey Weinstein’s NY Address

Although it was a cover story and contained thousands of words, Vanessa Grigoriadis didn’t really say much in her hit piece on Gawker in New York magazine last week. Without delving into the jaded writer’s numerous shortcomings in her assessment of the “rage of the creative class,” besides this gal does a much better job, we will congratulate the author for at least outing Kelly Rippa and Harvey Weinstein’s Soho address. She writes:

Denton’s place is one of the great Manhattan apartments for a party, a cavernous loft that seems to be decorated only in titanium and suede in a Soho building whose other tenants include Kelly Ripa and Harvey Weinstein.

One quick search for Nick Denton + Spring Street pretty much yields all the stalking information you’ll ever need, but don’t thank us.

Moby Doesn’t Want You To Have His Email, Even Though He Won’t Be Checking His Email

Today, Gawker put up a post about Moby’s electronic withdrawl from the web. The organic techno hippy will no longer be answering emails and will instead hole up and revert to Luddism. So jokingly a comment went up, something to the effect of “let’s all email him and flood his inbox so he never uses it again” with his personal addy (slang) provided. Unfortunately, Moby’s management company wasn’t thrilled and asked Gawker’s managing editor Lockhart Steele to redact it. In any event we figured we’d just repost. So fellow pranksters and Mobyites, here it is again, where it will be safe from his thin granola encrusted fingers: boatmate@earthlink.net. But then again, he’s not checking his email, right?

I Am Valuable But Not Valued

Clearly written by a recently disposed Gawker media serf taking out their frustrations about the cruel realities of the Denton oligarchy. Or it’s just some drunk guy recently dumped by his girlfriend.
