We worked hard on making our SLC Romneys post fun, as I'm sure you did on yours. I think a small acknowledgement of unintentional similarities (especially since you've had tips on this article for almost a week) would be very little skin off your nose and would ultimately be the classy gesture.

The comment arguments on this site are the dumbest, most petty, fucking childish bullshit ever. Every other Gawker site, you get sometimes good/sometimes bad posts, and typically witty responses (though, these prompt some stupid disagreements, too).

You actually get a wealth of interesting posts on this site followed by whining, backbiting, name-calling and bile-spitting.

Come to think about it, getting aggravated about a "comment argument" on a website just made me laugh at myself.

]]> <![CDATA[<i>Hotter</i> Day Saints! Sizzlin' Pix Of All Five Rich, White -- And White Housebound?

Look at the bright side, though. Now you know how to get the attention you so desperately crave. Repeatedly post the link in the comments instead of just emailing it to the editors. Brava.

Anyway, like I said before, I don't really care. I think it's more humorous than anything else. Gave me some pageviews to, which is good, because my smug sense of self-satisfaction can't live on without them.

Not that they needed to, it's just... interesting... that such prolific commenters would never once link on any of the several political-ish posts that Jezebel (not just Moe) puts up every single day, but would instead email the writers/editors and patiently wait for a hat tip.

Again, I don't really care about this whole situation - I'm just curious (and, I assure you, in a non-snarky way).

]]> <![CDATA[<i>Hotter</i> Day Saints! Sizzlin' Pix Of All Five Rich, White -- And White Housebound? (Sweet Jesus No!)-- Romney Sons]]> @braak: Megan doesn't get the tips but the Jezebel editors do.

It's not that big of a deal except that it is really bad form and all that was needed was a simple link and acknowledgement. And yes, commenters do criticize Moe but when has she ever apologized or righted the wrong?

@deepbreaths: re:"Moe's hardly hard-up for story ideas..." Well she recently said she gets bored of writing on Jezebel and wants to write for Gawker (please don't -- they are having a hard enough time). Let's face it, Jezebel isn't exactly known for its rapier wit. So they used an idea from a tip that they thought was funny. And yes, "Hot or Not" and evaluating the Romney boys is not the world's most original invention. No one is accusing her of plagiarism. Just of being shoddy. But given what I've seen, I seriously doubt that she cares.

Since they liked the idea in the first place, it would have been nice to have linked to the site when they got the tip. And if they are going to repeat it, they should have provided a like with acknowledgement.

It is really about professional courtesy. And just because people are small time and write for free doesn't meant they don't deserve professional courtesy.

But no one is holding their breath.

They will for Moe, too, if this proves founded. But I notice your fearless leader's also removed himself from the conversation since I mentioned other forms of profit than ad-sales. Let's call a spade a spade and agree that everyone's in it for attention, one way or another.

I'm actually really in favor of SLC, and I loved it when you guys showed Denton that quality Gawker content could live on elsewhere, and that the regulars weren't going to stand for shitty changes. But listen to LeMaldeTete. Wait until we hear from Moe. See if you have a case then, and if you do, then we'll do something about it. Wearing fuzzy pink and sipping cosmos, of course.

I am not going to try and guess the underlying intention. A few commenters pointed out the coincidences - multiple tips and links to the site a week ago, the site's mention in an article critical of the parent company, nearly identical format and pictures.

One of the writers responded, the other hasn't, but it doesn't matter. She clearly has the respect of her loyal audience and doesn't need to explain herself to anyone. Coincidences happen all the time (ask Ms. Seinfeld and Ms. Allison), and women should stick together against such ludicrous suggestions.

]]> <![CDATA[<i>Hotter</i> Day Saints! Sizzlin' Pix Of All Five Rich, White -- And White Housebound? (Sweet Jesus No!)-- Romney Sons]]> @daisyfresh: Well, there was a lot of ongoing debate in the comments about Jessica Seinfeld, too. Even when they had the legal paperwork up, not everyone was convinced--there, there were specific phrases that were repeated in the documents that lent the claims additional credence. Even, then, not everyone was convinced ("I just wanted peace at my table," for instance, while not common usage, still isn't so uncommon that two people might not have both thought it).

I will agree that it's troublesome that Moe hasn't responded. But then, like I said, I'm not sure she reads the comments very often.

It's not like measuring the hotness of political spawn is new. Remember Chelsea? And fuck, a couple of my friends and I rated the Romney boys a few weeks ago using the same pictures and saying the same crap. There is only so much you can say about Molly Mormon boys and how they look/act. Maybe I should go around accusing Megan and Moe and SLC Outsider of being copy cats. Or maybe I will realize fuck, we are all adults who snark on a daily basis. Gee, maybe we might have the same line of thinking and GASP! Might post similar things. Fuck.

]]> <![CDATA[<i>Hotter</i> Day Saints! Sizzlin' Pix Of All Five Rich, White -- And White Housebound? (Sweet Jesus No!)-- Romney Sons]]> I just can't see Moe's motivation. I'm not defending her sense of artistry: you can tell her rambly, amphetamine-laced rants apart from the rest by a mile. But there's no denying that she's good at what she does, and she's certainly never shied away from controversy. I'd just like for someone to explain why she'd blantantly plagiarize from pretty much the one source on the Internets that was sure to see it. That's stupid, and though Moe is many things, that she is not.

If the SLCers think it's because she decided to wreak, ah, vengeance, against the site that dared be critical of Gawker in the Times, that's a pretty roundabout way to do so, considering that, uh, you'd notice. And do this. And, I'm gonna go out on a limb here, but I bet she literally couldn't care less about gawker.com's internal commenter squabbles.

]]> <![CDATA[<i>Hotter</i> Day Saints! Sizzlin' Pix Of All Five Rich, White -- And White Housebound? (Sweet Jesus No!)-- Romney Sons]]> @braak: Fair enough. It is completely possible that Moe didn't read the tips and came up with the format and photographs completely organically and everything else is just a wacky coincidence.

Not unlike Jessica Seinfeld. After all, recipes are recipes and there are only so many ways to prepare food.

At the very least, it would seem that she would actually respond to the concerns. The idea that she doesn't know about this is, quite frankly, laughable. I didn't expect or encourage the masses to rise up, but I am surprised that few are even bothered by the 'coincidences.'

]]> <![CDATA[<i>Hotter</i> Day Saints! Sizzlin' Pix Of All Five Rich, White -- And White Housebound? (Sweet Jesus No!)-- Romney Sons]]> @daisyfresh: Well, the problem is that, yes, that would bother everyone here, if you could effectively substantiate your claim. But, again, Megan's explanation for the articles polygenesis on this site remains plausible.

Yes, you know that you sent her tips on your site, but so far the proof that she's read them is only that you think she probably should have.

I am not saying that the article wasn't cribbed, only that it also seems completely possible. So, your assertions that we should be all up in arms about this are a little grating.

I'm sorry, but rating the attractiveness of presidential offspring--by actually co-opting something that another person already invented--isn't really so hilarious or original that someone else couldn't also think of it.

No. Had she attributed, like a decent writer would have, yes, it would have directed traffic. She didn't. The only reason there has been any traffic to the site is because she was called out on it by commenters.

And I guess that isn't the point. The point is cribbing from another writer without attribution. I would have thought this would bother this audience.

Getting one's little group blog -- and one's name, as proprietor -- mentioned bold-faced in a New York Times article bound to be read by fans, laypeople and media denizens alike isn't exactly small potatoes. There're thousands of other blogs that have dreamt nightly of such a mention (because blogs dream), and they don't have ads, either.

@daisyfresh: I do agree that this situation is a little odd, but if we turn it around, isn't your case as well? Moe's hardly hard-up for page views or story ideas -- in fact, she's likely one of the most successful at Gawker Media in that respect. What could it possibly benefit her to steal from you guys, who would obviously kick up a fuss? A few more clicks than otherwise? A couple of more dollars, literally, than she'd make otherwise? It seems like she's only actually helping SLC's traffic. OMG, does this mean Moe's engaged in even more secret conspiracy?! Where am I? What's happening??

I don't think anyone here is indicting the site as a whole, or even suggesting that this is par for the course. This is just one case where Moe and the editors were tipped off repeatedly and with considerable detail in the hopes of getting a link from Jez and some funny comments from the peanut gallery.

Instead, a week later (and after the tipster site was mentioned in an unfavorable article in the NYT), Moe cribbed from the tipster site and didn't attribute. That is just shitty and, quite frankly, unfair journalism.

I usually count on you to call it as you see it. Not quite sure how you can't see it here, especially when the silence is deafening.

It also seems fairly gauche that Moe has not addressed this. I do not imagine that it's likely that she's just waiting for the page views to get higher--it seems that, in the long-term, it's not useful to your paycheck to get a lot of page views on a thread in which people call you a plagiarist.

So several tips to your co-writer with a subject line of "Romney Boys: Hot or Not?" and a link to the blog, that was just a freak coincidence? To say nothing of AvengeMe's points about identify of format, photographs, etc.

This is unreal. If you guys aren't the Jessica Seinfeld of the internet, you're at least from the Julia Allison school of plagiarism.

]]> <![CDATA[<i>Hotter</i> Day Saints! Sizzlin' Pix Of All Five Rich, White -- And White Housebound? (Sweet Jesus No!)-- Romney Sons]]> @AvengeMe: Moron is an outdated term for the mentally retarded; one that still is minorly offensive but certainly not as blatant. Same deal with the word idiot. Also, instead of saying "retarded hot" "stupid hot" would be just as effective. Again, I can definitely handle offensive, but something about that word just seems unnecessarily offensive.

]]> <![CDATA[<i>Hotter</i> Day Saints! Sizzlin' Pix Of All Five Rich, White -- And White Housebound? (Sweet Jesus No!)-- Romney Sons]]> I can't say how many tips Jezebel gets but I get 100+ a day on Wonkette, many of which I often don't have time to read and, if it's someone hawking their own blog for a hit I don't read it at all because it's rarely something I can use. I didn't say anything for Moe because I don't presume to speak for her, and I assume that she's busy writing right now while I always make a point to check back when I've written something (even if the thread is outrageously long). And, once again, while I can't speak for Moe, I haven't been following the Gawker commenter thing in the least, but I personally love Tionna's work and was sad to see her go. But, really, our impetus was: what can we say about Romney that isn't boring, oh wait, hot sons, isn't it funny how how daughters are talked about all the time and sons are not, let's do something about that.

I think you may be waiting a while. Consider this: Moe is paid by the page view, so she is presumably keenly aware which of her posts are garnering the most views. This thread is the daily leader by far, so she is keenly aware of this discussion. She was called out about an hour ago and still hasn't said a thing.

I always liked her writing style, but she has lost my respect by this. She knows she has been called out. The only question is whether she will own it or deny it. Or just ignore it and hope no one is still reading this thread.

Then, a week later, after an article critical of GM in the NYT mentions the other blog, this appears, and no attribution whatsoever. Not a conspiracy - just kind of shitty. Hell, really shitty. I expected more out of the editors, too.

They were sent several tips about the post. They clearly liked the idea. They should have linked to the post -- which would have been nice given that it is a small blog that doesn't get nearly the amount of traffic that Jezebel has.

It's not a big deal, it is just bad form. And some of us are calling them on it.
