Deadspin explains why City Councilors Ed Flynn and Ricardo Arroyo referred to "miniature alcohol bottles" rather than "nips" yesterday: On the Greg Hill Show on WEEI, Chris Curtis said one of his "top five nips" would be Asian-American sports reporter Mina Kimes. Curtis apologized, said he meant to blurt out the name of actress Mila Kunis, who has no Asian heritage.

WEEI's Kirk Minihane yesterday ripped into Kevin Cullen for two bombing-related columns - one over the weekend, the other a couple days after the bombings. In the first column, he wrote that Martin Richard's father was a runner in the race; in the second, he made it sound like he was at the scene at the time of the explosions.
David Wade reports the Globe is now investigating Cullen's writing on the topic.

WEEI's Kirk Minihane says they're all out to get him because of their agendas, not just because he said something really stupid about Erin Andrews. Minihane explains what he says is the Globe's agenda (they have four writers who get paid to appear on 'EEI's archenemy station); doesn't really lay out the Herald's or Olbermann's agendas, except to say they have them. Oh, yeah, and Deadspin is run by a bunch of hypocritical clickwhores.

Go figure: John Dennis is not only still a racist, he doesn't see the hypocrisy of somebody who's had his weight problems criticizing somebody else's weight.
Via Bruce Allen, who notes the misogyny of that Minihane guy who's also on the show.
