Philadelphia’s own Moe Tkacik becomes a Gawker media darling as the Editor at Jezebel, their new site dedicated to all things girly in that Sassy Magazine kind of way. From their Manifesto:

To put it simply, Jezebel is a blog for women that will attempt to take all the essentially meaningless but sweet stuff directed our way and give it a little more meaning, while taking more the serious stuff and making it more fun, or more personal, or at the very least the subject of our highly sophisticated brand of sex joke. Basically, we wanted to make the sort of women’s magazine we’d want to read, a magazine that would never actually see glossy paper because big-name advertisers and the publishers who kowtow to them don’t much like it when you point out the vulgarity of a $2000 handbag.

They are also paying $10,000 for an unretouched magazine cover. Contact your spies! And Moe, congrats and keep it real.
