A Look at Just Jared's Business and Deadspin's Dong Shots

Two big profiles of A-list bloggers hit this week, The New York Times Style section piece about Just Jared (Jared Eng), and GQ‘s look at Deadspin’s A.J. Daulerio, titled “The Worldwide Leader in Dong Shots,” after Daulerio’s dogged quest of pics of Brett Favre’s penis.

Though the celebrity and sports beats often collide, the approach of these two monster traffic generators is quite different.  Eng is the publicist’s best friend, while Daulerio is portrayed as happy to bite any hand that feeds, without confirmation of a given scandal.

Both are entertaining, insider looks at two success stories as the blogosphere settles in to networks of outlets that look more like nimble versions of mainstream media organizations than one-man pajama blogs.
