Book-Dealed Blogger Learns There's Such A Thing As Bad Publicity
Blogger Patrick "Bad News" Hughes's Diary of Indignities is in bookstores now, and hey! It got a writeup in the Gainesville Sun, Patrick's hometown paper! Let's take a peek and see what the critics had to say.
From reminiscing about being a teen in teh 198s to chronicling a family Christmas complete with Jell-O shots, Hughes' tales are embarrassing but true. Hughes is a former writer and editor who lives in Gainesville.
Responds Hughes: "Fuck the Gainesville Sun. It sucks. If that sorry sham-ass excuse for a newspaper ever came into contact with real journalism it'd flame on like a vampire douching with holy water. I hope Osama bin Laden packs a Ford Pinto with fire ants and SARS and flies it into the building. I hope Chris Benoit comes back from the dead to babysit its kids. I hope its editors never ever learn how to spell "the," and all its advertisers get mad and leave, and the only people willing to buy any space in it until the end of time are American Apparel and Hitler. Seriously — fuck you, Gainesville Sun. Fuck. You." You know what? We don't think he's overreacting at all. Diary of Indignities [Bad News Hughes]
