Oh my God, you guys, no way. Get this: the New York Post was wrong. What's next: Intelligent Design? Celebrity weddings? Our meth-induced epiphanies that the CIA, in cahoots with the Norteños, are reading our emails and listening in on our phone calls? See, it seems that "[n]o slingshots have been found" and that the NY Post was wrong. And we refuse to believe anything Rupert Murdoch-related is less than perfect. Thankfully, according to......

The Dhaliwal brothers, they seem like a couple of nasty little rapscallions. Ruffians, we'll go so far as to say. Why? Because after last week's Christmastime big-cat attack - a mauling that took the life of their "friend," Carlos Sousa Jr. - it seems that at the two brothers "had slingshots on them at the time" - well, at least according to "sources" at the New York Post. (Seriously, aside from aspiring serial killers,......

You know that crazy idea Jake McGoldrick had for instituting tolls in downtown San Francisco as a way of easing congestion? And you know how it was quickly dismissed as yet another string of things that makes San Francisco what it is-- completely nutty? Well, New York's Mayor Mike Bloomberg just came up with the same proposal to ease congestion in New York. ...

As if you had any doubts about the veracity of our tipsters! Page 6 of the New York Post is confirming that Kimberly Guilfoyle and Eric Villency's son Ronan Anthony Villency was born on October 4 (just like our tipsters said) at 4:14 a.m., 7 pounds 9 ounces. Also, Moby is biking to a public transportation press conference tomorrow in Manhattan. They've got everything covered over there on Page 6! Fans of the Newsom category......

We have the latest and hottest political news today, coming to you from the best place to get the hottest California political news, the gossip pages. Which raises this interesting question: for those of us who read celebrity news to get away from politics, where do we go when politics become part of the gossip pages? And will all of this mean that we should start watching "Extra!" to get the lastest news on the Plame indictments? Anyways, in Monday's edition of the Examiner’s "The Scoop," there is a blurb about Entertainment Weekly saying that Warren Beatty "has been telling anyone who will listen that he plans to unseat Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger." And Cindy Adams writes in her Page Six column in the New York Post that the Governator is so pissed about the President poaching off his Republican money men, which he did last week and which the Governor was once again a very conspicuous no show, that he basically told the White House off and is threatening to become a Democrat over the whole thing. ...

It’s been quite a year for the Gavster. Elected by a slim majority, Gavin let a few gay people get married and the next thing you know, he’s blown up across the country. He’s become the biggest thing from these parts since the Pets.com sock puppet. Since then he’s been profiled in such illustrious magazines as the New Yorker and Esquire, posed for that little photo we like to describe as “So Best”, had......

Far be it from us to post stories making some spurious claim about some noted official and then disappear whenever they try to defend themselves. So when said noted official tries to defend themself, we'll be the first to bring it to ya'. Which brings us to BananaGate (HungGate?), the big talk-about-town item about whether or not Kimberly Guilfoyle Newsom revealed too much of the First Couple’s sex life, even miming giving the Gavster......

How do you know our esteemed First Couple has it made it? First there was big story in the New Yorker and now this- they made the New York Post gossip column! We are are so honored. According to the Post, Court TV anchor and part-time New York habitué Kimberly Guilfoyle Newsom was quite a hit as she gave a speech at the Empire State Pride Agenda fund raiser, subbing in for the hubbie......

One of Rush Limbaugh's pet pundits Michelle Malkin has been invited by California Patriots, the politically conservative campus group at Cal, to speak about her book In Defense of Internment: The Case for Racial Profiling in World War II and the War on Terror. Her talk is likely to focus on criticism of her book from the left, the role of racial profiling in our current War on Terror and her experiences as an author, New York Post columnist and television personality. Some readers may remember the heated exchange between Ms. Malkin, Chris Matthews and our own Willie Brown on MSNBC's Hardball, which Ms. Malkin posted about on her site.
1115.org has made their feelings known by featuring Ms. Malkin in one of their biting STFU pieces, and Ana Marie Wonkette has also weighed in on the issue. EssEffist also wants to point out that the children and grandchildren of interned Japanese Americans will have a hard time swallowing some of her arguments - and Muslim students at Cal, who by her own account should be viewed with suspicion as potential terrorists based on their ethnic background, are probably none too pleased with her appearance. EssEffist remembers reading Farewell to Manzanar in grade school and thinks the camps and their justifications were truly regrettable. We thought we were all clear on this when Reagan apologized for it, but Ms. Malkin disagrees.
The speech will be tomorrow night at 7:00pm in 145 Dwinelle Hall on campus....
