“About 75 percent of the country’s 17- to 24-year-olds are ineligible for military service, largely because they are poorly educated, overweight and have physical ailments that make them unfit for the armed forces, according to a report issued Thursday.”

If You're Going To Pitch A Story About Gawker Being Sexist

Here are some venues you might want to try:

- Mediaite

- Guest of a Guest

- ASSME

- BlackBook (Why not?)

Oh please, Gawker has been actively (even over-actively) trying to recruit and offer jobs to women for MONTHS now. Women keep turning them down. If there’s a story, it’s “Why is an editor position at Gawker no longer as appealing to a woman writer as it used to be?” Maybe there’s no answer, maybe it’s a coincidence, but if it was ever sexism it hasn’t been for a long, long time.

Maybe Bitch magazine or Sheila McClear’s Tumblr.

Forget Time and AOL, I’m more interested in the merger of The Business Insider and Gawker.

Gawker editor Anthony De Rosa noticed this first (obviously) and I dutifully tweeted about, wondering if some sort of explanation would be forthcoming. Is this an example of Gawker’s new publishing platform at work or has Business Insider worked out a content syndication deal with Gawker?

I liked Gawker when it was scared to death of resembling other sites. I guess the incessant differentiating of the same gets it more attention nowadays.
