RUN IT! Who Ran the Picture?

Gawker.com has a list of the media outlets and blogs that ran the leaked Rihanna photo vs. the ones that didn’t run it.

Of course the list of outlets that didn’t run the picture is much shorter.

You already know we ran the photo, but we’re nobodies so we aren’t on the list.

By the way, Happy Birthday to Rihanna who turned 21 today.

Ran the picture:

* New York Daily News – (with picture on homepage
* New York Post – (with picture on homepage)
* Newsday – (with picture on homepage)
* Us Weekly – (with picture on homepage)
* Huffington Post – (ran picture on homepage with link to TMZ)
* Gawker – (with picture on homepage)
* Star – (alternate picture on homepage)
* TMZ – (obviously, since they were the ones who obtained and first published it)
* Perez Hilton – (with picture on homepage)

Did not run the picture, but reported it:

* People, – which did a full story about the picture but did not even link it.
* E! – also did not link the picture when it ran a story about the photo and how Los Angeles police are investigating how it was leaked.
* The LA Times – wrote about the same investigation, with a link to the photo on TMZ.
* Drudge Report – linked the TMZ photo prominently.

(Larger news sites like CNN, MSNBC and New York Times did not cover the picture by end of day Thursday.)

I guess Rihanna’s battered face wasn’t news that was fit enough to print?
