Meet the SF Chron’s new sex columnist: blogger Violet Blue

August 29, 2006 – 7:35 pm


Violet Blue says:

It’s official. I’m now the sex columnist for the San Francisco Chronicle.

Not just ‘plucked’ from the blogosphere to freelance for a 141-year-old mainstream media institution; Phil Bronstein hand-selected me to be their frontline sex writer, with a column and everything that comes with it. I just got home from the Chronicle building — today was the final meeting with the PR department, and to set the launch date (I wore my Laughing Squid shirt to the meeting). At one point David Wiegand said, “We’re just making sure it’s okay before we plaster your face on buses.”

Link. Congrats, Violet! A chorus of lethal machines joins me in wishing you success in subversion.
