Pitchforkmedia.com Proves Equally Annoying In The Non-Digital World
For those of you that missed The Plug Awards, you probably missed this guy making a jackass out of himself. Apparently, he writes for the Village Voice and Pitchforkmedia.com, and he also thinks he's funny. In reality, reading poorly from an article in the New Yorker when you are supposed to be making an awards announcement is just annoying.
Update: I got a very nice link from Brooklyn Vegan about this. I've also gotten a few questions about this whole incident, as apparently I am the first person to blog about it (my theory being he doesn't deserve credit for this asshat of a stunt on a blog anyone actually reads). He opened up with the talk of having fun at Plug, but wanting to address something more serious. After an oh-so-tasteful reference to Hurricane Katrina, he went into the New Yorker piece. The article was about Pit Bulls. The text of the article he read from can currently be found HERE.

I'm relatively intelligent, and fraught with ironic sensitivities, but it was totally unclear, as this event unfolded, what exactly he was trying to accomplish with that stunt.
