Leftovers: Blogger Battle

• Ooh, blogfight! This time it’s between Philebrity editor Joey Sweeney and ex-Philebrity contributor Jonathan Valania. This blogfight is unique in that one of the two doesn’t even have a blog yet. Impressive work. Valania sez: “He needs to realize that he didn’t invent the Internet in Philadelphia.” Point! “He thinks the world is dying without Jonathan Valania’s Philebrity II,” sez Sweeney. Counter-point! If we can somehow get Will Bunch and Atrios involved in this, then the Philly blogoverse might just explode in a haze of lefty politics, snark and idiocy. God, please make that happen.

• Our old pal Will Bunch on the media coverage of the Amish killings: “We saw a decent chunk of the breathless, wall-to-wall coverage of the Amish country shooting spree on CNN, and we wondered if Charles Carl Roberts had been pushed over the edge by CNN’s breathless, wall-to-wall coverage of the other recent school shootings. Somehow, that issue wasn’t raised on CNN.” Next murder in Philadelphia (give it a few minutes), I’m totally saying Bunch’s most recent blog post pushed the killer over the edge. [Attytood]

• The man accused of killing a cop in a Newtown hospital’s ER last yearwas hospitalized yesterday after — and wait for the shocker here! — allegedly hitting a prison guard. Robert Flor, the accused, had previously threatened the guard. It’s all part of his plan to sabatoge any chance of being found not guilty before the trial even begins. Er, wait.

• Play interviews ex-Real Cancun star and ex-Tufts sex columnist Amber Madison on her new sex book for women. The highlight is a discussion on why straight men don’t write abotu sex: “A guy saying ‘grab your boobs,’ that’s kind of scary. ‘Whoa, buddy, chill out.’” So that’s why our date didn’t go well. [Play]
