Bird, Hand, Bush (Do the heavy lifting yourself)

Franz Stehrn (another mysterioso) is itching for confirmation on the Eurotrash-edited Gawker blog but he won't get an official one until the day it launches. In the meantime, he'll have to settle with this Radar item. I believe they have reporting standards so consider it coming from the Mount.

Of course, it's not like blog hires are "secret information" or anything. I mean, my ba-geezus, what happens now that this information is...feel free to take a bathroom break, the wait is gonna be about 15 mins for this...OUT THERE? Oooh, the chilllllls! I have no idea what to do with this knowledge but since my lobotomist on Long Island went out of business, I'm going to start padding my apartment with back issues of Vogue just in case.

But the real juicy stuff is the list of New York media-related people courted by Denton for various Gawker gigs who have rejected his offers. It covers the length of Broadway like a zebra-skin rug. Fake, I assume, because zebras are not indigenous to North London or warm to the cast iron of our own SoHo. I also hear a spot or two might be opening up on the flagship. The Denton Mother is half-mast and fully-pissed.

Related: I once saw Delly stick a tampon up her nose during brunch at Public. She'll turn the GM "douchebag" culture on its head. Worth the wait. Stay tuned, no clicking...
