I've been a working journalist for 30 years, with bylines in the Wall Street Journal, GQ, L.A. Times, Newsday, Salon, Spin, Esquire, and about 40 other places, and ... really, this new LIB crew is about as "investigative" as me pulling out my dick to take a leak. Luke was a crackpot, and not professional, but he came up with the goods once in a while. These clowns are mired in such extreme pointlessness (he Henri Pachard charity video fracas, Darrah flailing about like some hapless Midwestern sorority girl who has entered a "Be the Next Luke Ford" reality show contest) ... I mean, goddam, OK ... it IS entertaining. But it's also really sad and just reinforces the mindblowing lameness of "porno." To a large degree, the industry deserves it: Darrah and Donny Long are a match made in heaven. On the other hand, what's left of actual journalism could probably use some serious insider porno bird dog to drag a few dead quail out from the bush.
