Buzzed Daily!

The Washington Post ran this story about how the blogoshere can turn on you when you try to censor it. The Lesson: Dont ever censor -be as transparent as possible, make changes, then move on.

One of the great staples of New York Media life is gossip and one of the greatest things to happen in media gossip land is the anonymous blog. But one by one those bloggers have come out, lawyers, strippers, Fox News Producers until it seemed everyone had come out.

And yet there is still one blog left. It was never one of the more popular blogs and yet it persists. It has the feel of being written by a team of assistants, desperate to show how inside they are, hoping that oblique references and hazy party photos make them seem well, like a socialite. Yes I am talking about The Imaginary Socialite. Rumour has it that it is kept by Fashion Week Daily scribe Faran Krentcil. But one wonders if a fashion publication like The Daily would be comfortable having one of its team members using the publication's access to find fodder for a blog.

Faran and MisShapes Leigh Lezark

But in an industry where gossip and insinuations are par for the course maybe Brandusa Niro doesn't care. Still one would imagine that a girl with access like Faran would keep a much dishier blog indeed. That thought a lone lends credence to the idea that the blog really is kept by a bunch of silly assistants. Surely Faran can do better than that.
