Julia Allison and Gawker's Obsession With The Online Star

[EnjoyTheSilence331]

It's always black people that try to fool viewers by posting a deceiving pic and then some dumb black person starts talking. No shame!!

[rupertacdc]

you're a moron. It is absolutely not racist for someone to have sexual preference for a certain race. It's just what they find attractive.

[DoughJames]

She dated Harold Ford, Jr yrs ago. I guess he's black :-) She probably isn't a racist "like that".

She likes money. Tech guys have money. Most r nerds & would probably love sum1 like Julia. That's probably why she goes 2 those events.

I'm a black man. I understand wh women not dating bl guys. I wouldn't do it if I were them. Why piss off wh men for no reason? Unless the bl guy is wealthy & the woman is ready 2 suffer ridicule, don't do it.

White men hate that. No need 2 make life harder.

[bitsplit]

I want a magically disappearing, reappearing jacket like yours.

[gmcjetpilot]

What is wrong with a woman looking for a white guy you racist..... sorry but does every white woman have to date black men, Asians? That is just stupid. May be she is not attracted to black men and likes men who have jobs... oh zing! Then you whine about other whining about her being an attention whore and giving her attention, which is what you are doing. Do you see the irony? It is you that has the race lense. I am sorry you are black. Get over it.

[zennie62]

@gmcjetpilot There's EVERYTHING wrong with it. It means that in order to feed her desire, she's more likely to be racist in her treatment of someone black just for fear of having a black male friend - unless the guy's gay. So, you're WAY wrong here and you really need to get off your bum, stop the Internet flaming, and get out and live life. Better yet, do a video-blog about this and TALK to people. Geez.

[gmcjetpilot]

@zennie62

"feed her desire, she's more likely to be racist"

WTF! You assume she's a racist because she promotes herself? You're a racist for this video! SHE HAS A RIGHT TO PROMOTE HERSELF, AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO DATE/BEFRIEND BLACKS TO SHOW YOU'RE NOT A RACIST. That's sutpid! She doesn't give a @#$% what you think, because you're a powerful kind of stupid for making assumptions you can't prove. Proof she's a racist? No. I don't find most black woman attractive and I'm not a racist.

[LanceRock]

Julie Allison, nee Baugher, is a publicity whore with about two brain cells to rub together. Nice to know that her 15 minutes are pretty much over.

[vancouverbluz]

The reason why julia allison is facinating to some is because she is a train wreck and and people like to read things that will reinforce those preconceived notions.

[khyron692003]

You're a racist for saying she shouldn't date white guys. Is Mariah Carey a racist for matching up with Nick? What about Beyonce, Mary J? Are hey racist because they don't date whitey? NEWSFLASH Genius....Not only whites are racist. Where is your white/asian/boyfriend/girlfrie­nd? If you dont have one are you racist? According to your standards yes.

[zennie62]

@khyron692003 Yes, they are racist for having such a choice. 

[zennie62]

@khyron692003 Wrong. Genius. Just wrong.

[testing4echo]

I don't get it. What if Julia is not attracted to black guys? What is it supposed to mean if she only likes to date white techies, like Kevin Rose for example. So what?

[zennie62]

@testing4echo There's EVERYTHING wrong with it. It means that in order to feed her desire, she's more likely to be racist in her treatment of someone black just for fear of having a black male friend - unless the guy's gay.

[testing4echo]

@zennie62 Wow, it took a year to respond to that comment? Not being attracted to a race, doesn't mean you are racist. Kevin Rose is funny, hot & rich but I'm not attracted to him. I have friends who belong to a race that I've never dated-no racism there. I don't like Julia, and I unsubbed from Wired when they had her on the cover, but she's not dating anybody because of YOUR opinion. It's obvious you like her and you fear you don't have a shot. One things for sure, you don't with your attitude

[JandJCJ2005]

@zennie62 - I'm really sorry,but this is such a pathetic argument.I am white,and I have a white boyfriend.So according to your reasoning,I am racist because I don't have a black boyfriend?Are you also the type who believes that racism is a one way street?

[youstupidwoman]

and a scumbage ,raciest by the sound of thay comment

[PhilD13]

Zennie, I'm a black guy, but I don't think it's "racist" that someone chooses who they like to date based on race any more than based on height, economic status, hair color, breast size, etc.

By your judging, shouldn't you also be calling Bill Maher a racist because he prefers to date only black women?

[azulo65]

Julia and Gawker - if either one didn't exist the other would have to invent them!

[clay0101]

you are right, julia is only likes the white guys. Could you imagine a nerdy asian guy going up to her and asking her out. she would reject him so hard if cameras were not around.

Gawker writes a lot about julia on valleywag because she is a hot bitch that puts herself out their to the tech community or she pays them.

Either way the tech community is scarce on the hotties the only other hotties are leah culver. Also, let me remind you that techies are mostly guys. And guys like hot chicks.

[cheeriojayne]

This a well done video with a great point -- why promote her if she is a self promoter?

[kigyty]

Gawker used to post about JA multiple times per week, often more than once per day! The commenters howled in pain and begged them to stop on EVERY SINGLE POST. Those who cried foul too loudly or too often would get the banhammer. After all, she once posed as a "Gawker Pinup" in her bra and panties!

I'm just thankful that this year, they've only posted about her a couple of times per month. Maybe it's because of her email to Valleywag's Owen Thomas, calling him a "little cunt". She's no star.

[Congest]

Should I feel bad for not knowing who the hell Julia Allison is?

[AlanMolstad]

I have.....umm...who?

I have nothing to say this time.

I have nothing to add, no comment, no clue about what or who this video is about.

[kigyty]

Thank you for translating your stream of consciousness into electronic text form, because my third eye is at the dry cleaners. Riveting stuff.

[AlanMolstad]

Took me a long time to think of just the right words to sum up my lack of concern about the topic of this video.

It's a toss up really , do I care less about Julia Allison or Gawker?

I dont know...

Thats a hard question to deal with, to try find an answer for., But I will search, and search, ..."DING" oups, the Pizza ready I got to go.

[amjan]

You're a great speaker. You should discuss either funny or serious things - not some Julia Allison. Like who's she??? I'd be willing to subscribe to you then. :)

[threeminutes]

I figured it worked like this. It's too bad you're not here.

[tanio12]

Well Zennie like they say any publicity is better than no publicity at all. Also not all of the TECH guys are white, there are others but Julia Gawker Allison would'nt know that.
