Foxnews.com has published a screed taking the mainstream media to task for their "orally charged" coverage of the tea parties: Namely, the repeated use of the term "teabagging" for giggles.

We think we've figure out Twitter's big news tomorrow: Oprah Winfrey is joining Twitter. Here's the evidence.

A tipster has come through with the first solid intelligence on hipster grifter Kari Ferrell's whereabouts since news of her criminal exploits broke yesterday. She's allegedly still right here in Brooklyn!

Remember back in February when Mayor Bloomberg announced a $45 million program to retrain investment bankers to help them begin careers in other industries? The program begins this week when 50 former Wall Streeters—who have 15 years of finance experience, on average—show up for 10-week unpaid internships at various start-ups around town. But don't call them interns, please: They're officially called "consultants." [NYT/City Room]

In your fabulous Thursday media column: John Madden retires, newspapers just falling apart everywhere, Martha Stewart gets a fat contract, and Fiji's version of The Onion:

Facebook's revenues are reportedly up 70 percent from last year, when they came in between $250 million and $300 million. What's their magic trick? Junky ads with catchy photos!

[Submit your own Gawker Stalker sightings to stalker@gawker.com] April 16 @ 12:06pm Just saw Anderson Cooper looking casual, head down in a baseball cap, but his telltale silver hair peaked out the back.

We're not sure why CNBC would have picked Michael Wolff, of all people, to come on to talk about how disgraced CEOs and celebrities can go about restoring their damaged reputations—and it's also a mystery why Wolff would have accepted such an ironic invite—but maybe he was just hoping to pick up a tip or two from the other guests on the panel? Unfortunately for Wolff, just as he got done explaining why a Lindsay Lohan reality show would be a huge rating success—you think?—some sort of technical glitch occurred and kind of ruined Michael's moment. Oh, well. We'll just have to look forward to next week when Wolff appears on camera to talk about what qualities to look for when you're hiring an intern.

Yay, puns! TV news folks are always employing bad wordplay—"Barack/hard place"—to add a little levity to the grim news proceedings. Our video team has compiled a clip reel off the recent best/worst.

I like this sentence in the NY Times story: "The Fox News producer responsible for most of the ambush interviews, Jesse Watters, refused repeated interview requests." That just about says it all, doesn't it?

Are you rich? Who knows what qualifies as wealthy in these topsy-turvy times? Do people who make $400,000 every year whine that it's unfair to describe them is "rich?" Yes. Let's take their money.

The fuck? The long-threatened veto was finally exercised last night. On Lil! Wait, no. On Gokey! Oh, hm, not that either. On Matt Giraud. Really, Irdol? A season's worth of build-up for... Matt Giraud.

Lawyer Marc Dreier is thoroughly disgraced, having been charged with bilking investors out of $400 million as part of a fake bond scheme. But things just got a little bit worse for the former mega-lawyer currently under house arrest: It appears he was a client of the prostitution ring operated by Jodi "Babydol" Gibson, the madam who served time in prison and later published a tell-all that identified Bruce Willis and Ben Affleck as past clients. Of course this also means Dreier has someone he can consult on what life is like on the inside, which may not be such a bad thing. [Dealbook]

Patrician nerd George Will believes that blue jeans will be the downfall of this great country. Denim is only intended to be worn by "horny-handed sons of toil and the soil." What a prick. [Wonkette]

Esquire's ad revenue dropped 22% in the first quarter, which actually put it above average. But we hear that the magazine's staff, and its corporate overlords, are on edge. There was a meeting yesterday [UPDATED]...

• The Times is folding in several sections of the paper (City, Escapes); scrapping the weekly fashion spread in the New York Times Magazine, and cutting the budget for freelance writers. Grim times, indeed. [NYT, Gawker]
• NBC CEO Jeff Zucker is reportedly concerned that CNBC has become too conservative and is becoming "the anti-Obama network." [P6]
• The new Ben Silverman? That would be ABC's Stephen McPherson. [NYP]
• Bill O'Reilly tends to ambush liberals more often than he does conservatives. Could that mean he, like, has an agenda or something? How surprising! [NYT]
• Twitter on fire: Traffic is up 131 percent from February. [AdAge]
• Gannett Co. reported a 60 percent decline in first-quarter profit today. [AP]

Twitter CEO Ev Williams is teasing his followers: "Tomorrow just became a very big day." Just? At Twitter, tomorrow is always a very big day.

Salon's Cary Tennis and Slate's Prudence both hand out advice. Today, they happened to answer the same letter from a guy conflicted about spending his inheritance from grandma. Let's compare and contrast their responses.
