TMZ
TMZ, or National Enquirer 2.0, is a gossip site and TV show for 16-year-old girls created by old white men. Some argue the letters TMZ stand for thirty-mile zone, referring to the "studio zone" within a thirty-mile radius of an intersection in Los Angeles. Shooting locations outside this zone are subject to mileage and travel time charges by the talent and crew, so the Jews at AOL keep the show tethered to save money. Others say it stands for The Milhouse Zone, referring to the intense levels of fail that surround it. Oh, and they pay for stories. That's some fine journalism, Lou.

—Jew, stating the obvious. | ||
The 'brains' behind TMZ, he pretends to be an openly gay man, but is in reality a straight man reverse-bearding to cover the epic amounts of douchebaggery and fail that is professional gossip. In a bid to get famous, he nearly got OJ freed before the retarded jury did. He aired a video on the CBS west coast feed that alleged impropriety by prosecutor Marcia Clark, which was patently untrue. Gg.
First Post
As real journalism has disappeared into the sludge of advertising and politics that we call 'mainstream media', the First Post phenomenon has replaced in-depth reporting that gets to the root of the story. Instead, whoever tags their name to the story first gets something, and TMZ is no different. Celebrate their brilliant work with us here.

It's only a matter of time until the guy chasing you with the camera gets smacked in the face. Or maybe they just need to get some more sunlight.

In a moment of epic lulz, TMZ fell victim to a brilliant play. On December 29, 2009 the TMZ staff posted The JFK Photo That Could Have Changed History, containing what appeared to be images of Kennedy just before the election, sunning with nude swimmers on a boat. Their experts claimed that this didn't look shooped, but they were wrong.
