Big Fat Kiss-In (NYC edition) in the News

Oh my. I (with a sad sad heart) missed the Kiss-In. But I help out by sending off a press release about the event to the NY media. Let me tell you that Stacy and Aris and Substantia and Marilyn and all the Kiss-In organizers are amazing to have pulled this off with speed, humor and overall awesomeness. 

Let’s all do more of this! This is exciting and positive and good. Every time we put the heads back on the fatties, it’s good (great). 

OK—so the press wrap-up is here (tadah!): 

Wall Street Journal’s “Speakeasy” Blog (with pictures—a nice long piece!) 

The NY Daily News and in the gossip section of the Daily News as well (including a quote from Substantia). It’s a gossip page, so it’s not so nice. 

Jezebel got right on the news too. 

OntheRedCarpet and on BlogHer and on TheFrisky and PRNewswer and Racked

It’s also mentioned in this Huffington Post piece which is as critical of the reaction to the piece as she is of the piece itself.  And there’s another critical piece up on Ology

And on the Forbes (yes, Forbes?!) blog, a reporter calls for a counter-protest to defend Maura Kelly’s freedom of speech. 

If I’m missing things, please ping me or leave the links in the comments.
