Eating Penis

Our friend Kevin Pang eats some penis with Bill Plaschke. Seriously. In the name of journalism. Watch this now.

Re: Eating Penis

This can be addressed with as much silliness or as much seriousness as we deem appropriate. My first question: IS this journalism?

Re: Eating Penis

Kruse is onto something.

I watched every minute of this and enjoyed it, until it went sort of dark and it got worried about its own intent, and still I enjoyed it, but overall, when I watch these bells-and-whistles things as newspapers learn how to do them, I wonder if it's all too much goofin' around. That's a very strong urge with web-centric life. Just like with features, it's always easier to do something quick and riffy (until you start to write something quick and riffy and realize this, too, is hard), but it's really, really hard to go deeper. Since it has been stipulated that web video isn't Frontline, then what is it?

I want to read a dark and worried piece of prose about a night in the life of the restaurant that serves penis. Don't get me wrong -- I think I want the video too. My compliments to the chefs.

Re: Eating Penis

This video was funny, scary, interesting and, at the end, a little strange. But let me assure you all that eating penis is not foreign to the United States. Actually, my dad has worked at Shop-Rite for more than 30 years, and the meat manager in one of his stores used to carry pizzle, which is bull penis.

I can't imagine eating it, but at least we know somebody does.

Re: Eating Penis

Thank you very much. I don't claim to be an expert on any subject, but I know a little about a lot, including, unfortunately, forms of edible penis.

My best to Brooklyn, Ramsey.

Re: Eating Penis

I'd call you Euro-trash, but you're not even in Europe. I guess that's what happens when you leave journalism, you get all this dough to travel? Or is it for business? They got pizzle over there?
