Is there Gawker ethics? I mean, I guess there's Gawker ethics. It's a dangerous thing to talk about.

I'm always a bit suspicious of writers who have the gift of the gab.

I think 'Gatsby' is hobbled, in part, by its status as a Great American Novel. People kind of roll their eyes before they've even opened it, treat it with a 'been there, done that' attitude. I know I did. It took me years to re-open the novel and see how much I'd missed.

It's no wonder that new ventures such as The Daily look first to Gawker Media when staffing up. We should not wait for a poaching expedition to pay someone what they deserve. I apologize if that has been the case and will do better in 2012.

I just write what I think is funny. I don't care who watches it.

I love the satire and skewering of comedy writing.

I attacked Dawkins's book on God because I think he is theologically illiterate.

io9 was the last standalone site that Gawker Media ever launched. It was born at a time when many of the company's other famous sites, from Consumerist and Wonkette to Fleshbot and Idolator, were being sold off or shuttered.

I have a hard time finding something that I really enjoy reading, but I read 'The Great Gatsby' every summer.
