Excerpt from EDGE NEW YORK STORY...

"I am energized by politics and often have to blowmy top," Lady Bunny said as she noted her blog is often the place whereshe eventually has to find the lid on her wig. "Americans are so dumbeddown and gossip orientated."

She further pointed to decliningnewspaper sales. Tabloids, on the other hand, continue to gain inpopularity. And Lady Bunny stressed her blogs and others like hers cancontinue to capitalize upon this trend.

"The mainstream media isso full of lies and distortions that we need the unfiltered informationwhich comes from some of these blogs" she said. "Unfortunately too manygay men have the body of Gods and the brains of 15-year-old schoolgirls. So I try to mix in some politics with moreentertainment-oriented posts to trick them into caring about issuesother than Jennifer Aniston’s new hair style."
