What happened to mediawhoresonline.com ??


That was a very good website.

Can you name any media whores? I notice that most folks in the media treat that word as if it had something to do with sex? To me, it has an entirely different meaning.

Why not call it like it is?

2. I loved the Horse!
In fact, the Horse led me to DU. Good horse.

3. I still have the link on my web browsers at home ...
for some reason, I can't delete them. Guess I'm hoping it'll come back.

6. Wasn't the bloke in school?
I think he said something about taking a break because he was busy. Time and events must have left the site back in the dust.

7. I think Howard the Duck Fineman was Media Whore of the Year
Two years running.

MWO has been gone for at least seven years.

And I still miss it.

11. BartCop coined the term "media whores." It was one of his readers who created that site.
IMHO, BartCop is the guy who creates MOST of our political witticisms.

10. I wish I knew...
...that was the site where I first found DU from. It was my very first "go-to" site for exposure of all of the shenanigans going on - and they did it with wit and style.

If anyone is out there who was affiliated with that site: you were great! I was and still am sorry to see you go.

12. It was a great site. What was their motto? Something like
"We set out to bring the media whores to their knees, but they were already there."
