“ Quite frankly, fuck discretion,” writes Moe Tkacik, a former newspaper reporter, on Denton’s newest site, Jezebel. “Discretion is how I didn’t figure out how to come until I was 24 years old; discretion is why women’s magazine editors persist in treating their fellow humans like total shit; and when you’ve spent a career trying to catch others in their own indiscretions, discretion just feels a little dishonest and superior.
The best line from Vanessa Grigoriadis’s necessary, long overdue NY Mag profile of Gawker and its impact of old and new (that - yes, we know - ran two weeks ago).
