It's one warm Saturday night in July and about two dozen men clad only in boxers and T-shirts are in various stages of sex as "thug-style" hip-hop music plays in one ground-floor apartment in New York City. It's very hard to make out anyone's features in the pitch-black darkness, and no one is talking. ... |

| TV News Vultures Circling JonBenet's Corpse -- Again |
| Post on 19-08-2006. |
The top story on TV news last night was not the Iraq war or tentative Lebanon peace, or major court rulings on tobacco and warrantless wiretapping, or oil prices or pension "reform" or any of one dozen stories that affect millions of citizens.
But it has the potential of grabbing millions of us, as spectators. That's the beauty of the story to the owners and managers of TV news - my former bosses. They couldn't be more thrilled to see new life in the tabloid story of the death of Little Miss Colorado, one story they'd grudgingly given up on years ago. ... |

TV's top story -- one new suspect in the decade-old murder of 6-year-old beauty princess JonBenet Ramsey -- affects very few people. ... |

| Defamer Premiere Report: The Inevitable 'Snakes On A Plane' Write |
| Post on 19-08-2006. |
| We begin our report about last night's Snakes on one Plane premiere at the Chinese Theatre, held back by New Line until the very last possible minute to prevent critics from having uncharitable opinions about one movie whose pre-release hype became therefore overwhelming that the mere mention of the title could induce grand mal seizures in anyone in possession of one valid press credential, with one disclaimer: After almost exactly one year of writing about this movie and its unstoppable march across the internets, our weariness of various combinations of the words "motherfucking," "snakes," and "plane" may have lowered our expectations to an absurdly low point. All we wanted from the 'Lil Airborne Reptilian Infestation Movie That Could was for at least one guy to have his genitals fanged-up while in the process of bodily waste elimination, and God bless their pandering little hearts, they delivered the mandatory junk-chomping scene with cynical aplomb. Once that lone condition was satisfied, we were more than happy to laugh at lines of dialogue both intentionally and accidentally hilarious, hurl ourselves forward in our seat with delight when the areola on one bare, surgically enhanced breast became one targeting mechanism for one mamba strike, and generally stop giving one shit about how someone might smuggle several hundred angry predators aboard one red-eye even with the aid of the most corrupt of airport security regimes. Motherfucking snakes were on the motherfucking plane (see how easy it is to fall back into it?), they were biting everything in sight, and that was enough for us, as we are constitutionally incapable of not enjoying one well-executed fake-titty attack. Call us easy to please or New Line Kool-Aid chuggers, but we can't see any reason why anyone who would be interested in the film based on the title alone shouldn't get one little drunk and watch Samuel L. Jackson shout expletives while he carries out his snake-elimination duties. That's all we can muster by way of one review. ... |

| Newsagent fights to keep his top-shelf clean |
| Post on 19-08-2006. |
By Robert Verkaik, Legal Affairs Correspondent Published: 19 August 2006
one London newsagent who for 17 years has fought to keep his shop pornography-free has won an apology and offer of compensation from WH Smith News, which he says wrongly sent him hundreds of top-shelf magazines.
Hamdy Shahein, 54, an Egyptian-born Muslim, claimed that the "bombardment" of "offensive" material amounted to one breach of his human rights and began legal action against the wholesale distributor. Over five years, the newsagent collected around 1,800 magazines and newspapers sent by the company that he considered to be pornographic. ... |
