Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
Today, Gawker features an item about how batshit some folks went for a recent T-shirt giveaway on The New103.7: Lite FM (or whatever the former KVIL calls itself these days). Looks like Gene & Julia were giving away Gawker's "Don't Free Paris" T-shirts, eliciting quite the frenzy from fashionable fans of free celebrity fuck-you's. Gawker even features an MP3 of a caller to the station -- a woman named Kristen (?) who works at the Lew Sterrett Justice Center and says "it'd be so much fun" to wear the shirt around the county lock-up. Fun...and funny! Unlike, say, lite rock. --Robert Wilonsky
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
