Dan Savage

Savaging Salon

Gawker catches Salon in an embarrassing (and pretty funny) gaffe: The online mag recently got in touch with "some of their favorite experts and opinion-makers" and asked for their thoughts on the presidential race. But in trying to contact Savage Love writer and all-around alt-weekly bigshot Dan Savage, they accidentally contacted this Dan Savage.

Salon didn't realize its mistake even when they got back a barely readable response (Gawker has the screengrab) which included the observation that Hilary Clinton "has no penis ... as far as we know" -- which they briefly posted.
