Well, we asked you to send us "lurid first-hand accounts involving the New York media world," and you sure as hell did. Sure, some of them were forwarded emails that have been floating around forever (for the record: Linda Clark = crazy bitch; assistant = needs to learn to take a hint), but others were news to us, man. A couple of the top mole contenders so far are after the jump. Remember, we — and you — will select a pair of winners eventually, and these lucky moles will have the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to find out what happens when Gawker editors and Page Six's Paula Fro get all drunk and loose-lipped. Super exciting, no? (If you'd rather have your booze 'to go,' we're sure that can be arranged, too.) You can't win if you don't play! Send your tips to mole@gawker.com.

The shock is not that Project Runway contestant Keith Michael cheated by submitting sketches stolen from prominent designers' runway collections. It's that Elle fashion director and Project Runway judge Nina Garcia appears to have been sitting in the front row at one of the shows from which Michael copied his designs, and yet she totally didn't notice. For shame, lady! Keep fucking up like that, and they'll take away your Vuitton.
