			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>FishbowlDC obtained a memo from the <em>Washington Post</em>&#8217;s <strong>Marcus Brauchli</strong> to the newsroom about the paper&#8217;s &#8220;newsroom revamp.&#8221; In the memo, <em>WaPo</em> says the move will &#8220;involve some tricky logistics and no doubt inconvenience some people.&#8221; Shucks. Fishbowl&#8217;s <strong>Matthew </strong>then <a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/fishbowlDC/newspapers/wapos_newsroom_to_play_musical_chairs__118083.asp">compares the remodelling of a building to the Holocaust</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>My favorite line: &#8220;In the meantime, you may want to start packing up or winnowing files so you&#8217;re ready to go with a few weeks&#8217; notice.&#8221; Very &#8216;Diary of Anne Frank&#8217;&#8230;.</p></blockquote>
<p>FishbowlDC has been <a href="http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/columns/deptofmedia/">living on the edge</a> lately, but Anne Frank jokes?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Once in a while, Fishbowl D.C. really bros out on us. Every year, we all must endure the <a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/fishbowlDC/hottest_media_types/hottest_media_types_your_2008_winners_91436.asp">Hottest Media Types</a> contest and the shameless self-promotion surrounding it. But <em>nearly each and every week</em>,  we fight another silent, creeping bro-dom from the Web site: The Fishbowl D.C. Photo Caption Contest.</p>
<p>This week&#8217;s contest was true to form: It featured <a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/fishbowlDC/news_notes/photo_caption_contest_the_nominees_95436.asp">a photo of President Bush appearing to prepare to slap the ass of a member of the U.S. Women&#8217;s Beach Volleyball Team</a>, then asked readers to create a funny caption to illustrate the visual. (Note: This is at least the second in Fishbowl&#8217;s <a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/fishbowlDC/news_notes/photo_caption_contest_the_winner_91910.asp">ass-slapping-themed photo series</a>). These were the finalists:</p>
