Elizabeth Kilbride
Opinions Editor

Jeremy W. Peters recently wrote an article for the New York Times headlined “92% of Ads in Florida Were Negative.” Exhibit A was an ad by the pro-Romney Super PAC Restore Our Future, although I’m not sure this is a corner of YouTube you want to visit. Jane Mayer also wrote about negative advertising in an article about Larry McCarthy, who helps direct Restore Our Future, in The New Yorker; the article was called “Mitt Romney’s Attack Dog.”

Reporter

The One Way Relationship Train

Kate Gilhool
Associate Editor

I hope it isn’t just me, but I feel like I have special relationships with celebrities even if I’ve never met them. When my girl Kim K filed for divorce a few weeks ago I was in shock because I had just celebrated her wedding 72 days before. When I say that I celebrated her wedding to Kris Humpries I mean that I spent 3 hours on the Dr. Pit couch in our living room watching her 3 part wedding special on E! News.
