Gawker has a mole at Fox News

Post by HM-PuFFNSTuFF »

good read here:

http://gawker.com/5900710

What follows is the inaugural column of a person we are calling The Fox Mole—a long-standing, current employee of Fox News Channel who will be providing Gawker with regular dispatches from inside the organization.

I always intended to keep my mouth shut. The plan was simple: get hired, keep my head down and my views to myself, work for a few months, build my resume, then eventually hop to a new job that didn't make me cringe every morning when I looked in the mirror.

That was years ago. My cringe muscles have turned into crow's feet. The ten resumes a month I was sending out dwindled into five, then two, then one, then zero. No one wants me. I'm blacklisted.

I work at Fox News Channel.
His plan utterly backfired.

That was a pretty lame opener to be honest. I was expecting some real dirt.

This might be interesting if he was someone who worked relatively higher up with access to a few scoops about Fox News' questionable internal policies, but it sounds like he's a lowly average Joe working in the studio and catches the occasional gossip. Meh.

He said he wanted to get out and so probably knew he would be outed soon (but maybe not this quick).

He might have lasted longer if he'd hacked into a co-worker's account and access videos from there.... but putting blame on innocent coworkers is a pretty dickish thing to do and probably a line he did not want to cross.

I was right, Average Joe is actually named Joe.

What's he gonna reveal that hasn't been broadcast in a documentary or on one of thousands of internet blogs?

Fox News is a joke. Film at 11.

you have to understand that in PuFF's eyes, this is like Anne Frank managing to disguise herself as a Nazi and getting a job fluffing Hitler's pillows

About half of the people in this thread obviously didn't read the article.
