    Wonkette - The DC Gossip

    wonkette

    Looking for the latest gossips, rumors and news on DC politics? Looking for interesting, substantial and amusing comments? If so, you’ve found the right place. Wonkette is a blog about politics that details the goings-on of the political establishment in Washington, DC. The site focuses heavily on gossip, humor, and the downfall of the powerful, as well as more "serious" matters of politics or policy. This weblog doesn’t pretend to be objective, New York Times style journalism. Wonkette is to political weblogs as Jon Stewart's Daily Show has been to the political shows on television. The blog gained national media attention after Cox, former editor, publicized the story of Jessica Cutler, a former Capitol Hill staffer who wrote on her blog about her affair with a Bush administration official. Photographs, especially of DC-area parties, are regularly featured. By registering, you will be able to add friends, and clip articles. Commenting requires a little more effort on your part.

    Why it might be a killer

    Wonkette will probably become a must-visit site for Washington, D.C. insiders, political junkies, and a new generation that prefers humor than traditional journalistic style. It’s a blend of gossip and satire and things the author makes up. But it’s also considered an edgy political scandal sheet.

    Some questions

    How many other political blogs are competing for the same pool of people? Politics news are everywhere, on TV and radio stations, newspapers and magazines, online portals, and so on. Will people prefer this kind of casual, sarcastic style, filled with gossips and rumors or will they just stick to traditional media?
