It’s a Whole New Game Now: TMZ Hits Below the Beltway

Okay, the headline’s a rip-off of a Dave Barry title.

But still.

TMZ (a division of Time Warner), long the bane of Hollywood celebs, plans to launch TMZDC, where they will turn their lens and venom on the Washington political scene. While this may be horrible news for politicians, it’s probably in general a very good thing for politics, because, hey, if TMZ’s covering it, I just might follow the election this year.

Ooh, this gives me an idea! Maybe, in light of the upcoming presidential race, Evil Beet should launch its own political website, complete with my in-depth commentary on the goings-on of Washingtonians. We can call it Evil Beet: Whatever I Say Is True Probably Isn’t Because I Slipped Through the Cracks of the American Education System and Actually Never Took American History and the Only Thing I Know About Hanging Chads Is That This One Sig Ep Guy Could Down Half a Keg Hanging Upside Down from the Bar on My Sorority Sister’s Closet But Then It Broke and We Had to Have the RA Drive Him to the Hospital Because No One Else Could Walk Let Alone Pilot a Vehicle Also What’s a Senator?

Who’s in?
