Allow us to bask in a self-congratulatory moment of bliss and exhaustion. As we were publishing articles this morning, we realized that Obama’s Hawaiian birth certificate discovered at Honolulu garage sale was post number 1500. Whew. We can’t believe it. Hell, if we would have known we’d be writing this much we may never had begun this crazy site seven months ago.
But we’re glad we did. And we’ve been lucky to have seen so such success so quickly. Without boring you with all the technical achievements the site has enjoyed, we do wish to express our heartfelt thanks for your patronage. Many thousands to tens of thousands of readers are now stopping by each day, and our Twitter influence (@ihatethemedia) has grown to where we are now the 79th Most Interesting (of 7361) in the Top Conservatives on Twitter (TCOT).
Embarking now on the second half of our first year, we’d like to open up the pages to more of you who would like to write. You can read this page for more information. You already know the mission: quick, funny observations on the day’s news. We want commentaries and analysis that make the mundane interesting, that make the boring amusing, and that look at the world of liberal media bias through a conservative lens.
We’d also like to expand into more “caught on tape” videos and audio. If you’ve got a mobile device with a videocamera or audio recorder, and some guts, well, go get ‘em. Infiltrate Obamanut meetings, corner a politician on the street and ask him a pointed question, interview leftist protesters and allow them to show off their brilliance. Have some fun and adventure with it. If you’ve got something good, we’ll put it on the IHateTheMedia Youtube channel, and play it here on the site as well. You’ll be a famous citizen reporter in no time.
So if you’d like to help, see our Write for Us page; send us a note about anything through our contact form, and give us your feedback in the comments of this article. And if you are a seething humorless liberal reading this, please go to our Hate Mail page; we made it just for you.
Again, thanks for your support and friendship. We look forward to the next 1500 articles. Hopefully some of them will be yours.
