A Six-Hundred Pound Twinkie of Snark

*sigh*

NEW YORK (Reuters) — Former political blogger Ana Marie Cox, better known as Wonkette, will rejoin the so-called mainstream media as the new Washington editor for Time magazine’s Time.com Web site later this month.

Cox, 33, will coordinate Time.com’s political coverage and write features and essays for print and Web versions of the magazine owned by the world’s largest media conglomerate, Time Warner Inc., which is also the parent company of CNN.com.

I assume that Time magazine has decided to corner the anal sex jokes, low-rent Maureen Dowd impressions, and gossip markets all in one fell swoop.

I’m sure that Cox is a nice person and all that but…man. I can’t honestly think of anything to say that’s not so filled with snark that its mere presence would cause a fourfold crossrip – a snark surge of incredible, even dangerous proportions.
