Adventures in new media revenue generation: The Daily Beast’s ‘News Cocktail’
Blog juice.
Debuting the News Cocktail of the Week: “The Public Option” is a cure-all cocktail sure to bridge ALL sides of the health care debate.
Far be it from me to fault my friends at The Daily Beast for earning some revenue.
But I’ll tell you this.
After this summer of health care rage, I don’t want a refreshing cocktail to bridge all sides of the health care debate. I want a stiff double of whiskey that will encourage me to wrap my hands around a cudgel and vanquish my political opponents.
Jameson Irish Whiskey, perhaps we can set something up where you send me bottles of whiskey, I drink them, get enraged, and write really mean blog posts. I am happy to start each blog post with, “So I was drinking Jameson, and I read…”
If you’d like to discuss this idea, please write to my tips e-mail at the bottom left.
If you’re not interested, screw you guys, I’ll get in touch with the good people at Powers.

I think you meant to ask people to write to your tipsy email address. Just my guess.
