Deceiver Leftovers

What’s your favorite “leftover” meal? Somewhere between Shepherd’s Pie and Pasta Puttanesca, there’s Deceiver Stew.

Our “tips” in-box runneth over, and we haven’t yet mastered the intracies of the 25-hour day. So here’s a sampling of what’s been sitting in our e-mail Tupperware, gathering silicon dust:

Whew! And nary a word about the Breck Girl.

Discuss.

Father of the Year: John Edwards

(Hi there! If you’re just joining us, welcome to Deceiver.com. You can find our complete coverage of the John Edwards/Rielle Hunter story here. We’ve got information about Hunter’s psychic friend and alleged hotel hookup-enabler Bob McGovern, her website that somebody doesn’t want you to see, and a lot more. And why not? It isn’t like anybody else is reporting on it.)

The following video is from the Father of the Year Awards in New York on June 7, 2007. Which, oddly enough, was a little less than 9 months before Frances Quinn Hunter, daughter of Rielle Hunter, was born on Feb. 27, 2008. I mention this for no particular reason.

Here’s the clip:

“Your children learn not only from what you say, but from what you do.” Truer words…

As I noted yesterday, all sorts of information about this story has been mysteriously disappearing from the Internet. So I’d advise you to download this video if you want to watch it more than once or show it to somebody else. It’s from the official John Edwards YouTube channel, and they might just pull it when they see people talking about it in a slightly different context. Actually, at this point I hope they take it down, just to confirm the pattern.

(Hat tip to Deceiver reader Kris, who’s now 2 for 2. At this rate you’re angling for Deceiver’s Tipster of the Year!)

P.S. Just in case this video does disappear, here’s a screenshot from page 16 of Edwards’ YouTube channel as of noon EST. This clip is in the top row, last one on the right. You can see part of the “Father of the Year Awards” logo behind him:

whoops

P.P.S. Via Roger L. Simon, you can read a cached copy of the now-deleted Wikipedia entry on this whole scandal here. I’ve only skimmed it, but it seems notable that the References section lists 83 — that’s 80 plus 3 — references to “legitimate” news sources with information on the topic. Somebody at Wikipedia put a lot of work into this thing and made it as well-sourced as humanly possible. And then somebody else at Wikipedia decided you shouldn’t see it. Wonder why?

Miley Cyrus Hangs Up Her Hannah Montana Wig

Could this be the end of Miley Cyrus’s Deceiver reign? The pop tart has announced that she’s ready to move on from Hannah Montana.

To the dismay of her young fans, the 15-year-old star has signalled that the next season is probably the last.

Cyrus has been playing her pop star alter ego since the age of 11 and is keen to take her career in a more mature direction.

“We’re thinking this is our last season,” the teenager told E! News, explaining that working on the show has been tiring: “I just think we did a lot of episodes. We basically did two seasons in one season last year. Usually people would do one season that would be 16 episodes, and we did almost 30 episodes.”

Something tells me Disney helped her make this decision.

And anyway, this announcement coincides nicely with her latest round of racy photos released by the iPhone hacker Train Req. Nothing you haven’t seen before, kids.
