Gawker Media Launches Wonkette, Politics to Become Fun

Oh Behave, Mr. President

Washington D.C. is in for a rude awakening. It is about to be attacked by a new weblog called Wonkette. It is published by uber-blog publisher Nick Denton who also publishes Gawker, Gizmodo and Fleshbot. The weblog, which is defined as "an online roundup of gossip from Washington, DC and the US political arena" is sure to cause a stir among politicos. With Gawker-style snark, Wonkette will leave no political scandal safe from mockery, no Dean-like scream safe from derision, and no Bush daughter dalliance safe from parody.
