Live From New York: It's a Bunch of Gawker Media Tech People!
We've no idea whether we'll survive the vagaries of the editing process, but the pallid sorry souls who toil at Gawker HQ were recently (as in, an hour ago) used as the backdrop for a Saturday Night Live "digital short" (sadly, it did not involve the always hilarious "white guy rapping" trope) set to air tomorrow night. As cast members Fred Armisen and Andy Samberg wandered about our offices filming us, in-house videographer Richard Blakeley surreptitiously filmed them. The result is the scintillating bit of video you see above. We're not sure if this isn't actually a clever ploy by Armisen and Co. to simply shoot random strangers in the hopes that they'll actually tune in to the ratings-challenged program, but either way, look at us, we're on TV!
