Glaring Omissions reproduces tips received from readers in the last week that weren't covered on Gawker, either by accident (rarely) or design (almost always).

  • "The following quote appeared in the NYTimes article on the new ethics legislation that passed the Senate: "... the Senate bill would also bar lobbyists or their employers from giving parties to honor lawmakers at party conventions." And I thought, wow! The Senate's ethics standards have just now caught up with those of Page Six. Corynne Steindler=Ted Stevens."
  • "i have one question. can you give me the home adress of britney spears or mary kate olsen? or the e-mail adress of this women? please anwer me. i'm a german boy and i want to travel to the us for visiting the home of that girls."
  • "next time you call the me an idiot — I wrote the Jared Kushner piece — have the guts to put your name to it, or don't you believe in bylines or accountability?" — Matthew Futterman, The Star-Ledger
  • "Hey Gawker. You say someone is dumb because they have a different opinion than you? What happens when you go to a to a different country? All the people there according to you are dumb? You are only up and running because of your parents money. Who truly respects you? You will delete this post because you cannot handle an opinion that threatens you. Your job is to gossip - sure your alumni are proud of you...right. Do what you do - stay safe and with your ilk. They wont tell you the truth."
  • "i went to this reading thing at the boxcar lounge last week (tues? weds?) because my friend dragged me along (they have two for one drink coupons) and there was this writer there that was UNBELIEVABLY (ok, for a writer) HOT. i used to try to get my panties twisted over ben kunkel (too short); jonathan franzen (only thing hot was the jacket pic on the corrections—real life was a letdown); and, even for a minute, malcolm gladwell (until my friend pointed out that he looks like sideshow bob) but at the end of the day—they all looked like... writers. this writer—with the unfortunate name of david matthews—did a reading and i think i listened but i was too busy watching. my friend and i kept nudging each other and making "o" faces. we are dorks. did i mention the 2 for 1 drink coupons? he's mixed and looks like a cross between prince, adrien greunier(??) and maybe jeff goldblum from back in the day. i am in the process of google stalking him to find out when his book comes out and where or where he will be reading again— but after reading about that tristam vegan so not hot guy i thought i would alert you all to this before/if/when there is an i told you so moment. remember—i told you so. looking for
    online pics but no luck yet..."
  • "Whoever saw ed norton going goo goo over the dumb 18 year old please let me know if you saw anything more! This is so interesting that a good actor like him is messing around with a girl old enough to be his little sister! Guess salma hayek must have really done a number on him or is he losing it being near 40? What a shame I can't watch his movies anymore? Looks can be deceiving!!!"
