What is snark? David Denby, film critic for "The New Yorker and author of Snark: It's Mean, It's Personal, and It's Ruining Our Conversation," takes issue with the prevalence of snarkiness in the internet age. He speaks with WNYC's Brian Lehrer.

  • Maybe he needs to hear it over 9000 more time before he finally gets it. Gawker no longer owns Wonkette. They haven't for years. How this got by Denby, his editors, and his fact checkers is astounding as it is easily searchable on the Google. Also, David Denby eats babies. Also.

  • This guy loves loves loves the sound of his own voice.

  • Where are my TRUCK NUTZ???

  • Blatant moran.

  • David Denby's reign of error continues. WONKETTE ISN'T OWNED BY GAWKER MORAN!

  • Snark: "ok when done in the drinking clubs of Hellenic-era Greece, not ok when done by contemporary blogs."

    But I'd have to say the thing I enjoyed most was the creepy hand-scratching motion Denby engaged in during the last 20 seconds of this video...

  • His claim that Gawker blogs are all snark-fests like Wonkette (paraphrasing) is just patently false. Fact-checking this claim, which would take seconds, would reveal that Gawker's Media Network includes a number of high-cred blogs (e.g., Lifehacker, Gizmodo) that are anything but snarky or lazy. Further demonstrates that Denby is guilty of some of the very same accusations he levels against Wonkette and their ilk.
