rachelle2 — Rachelle Hruska,-"... cheekbones always work for me, how about you?"

With all due respect, however, while I do not think Rachelle is idiot savant or unpleasant to have a cocktail with, it is quite evident after a few simple conversations with Rachelle that once you get beyond her fabulous looks she is one of the most intellectually light headed and insincere people you will meet on the social circuit in this town. A conversation with Ms. Hruska is about as controversial as a dialogue with a slice of Wonder Bread. Thus, as I stated in a prior blog post:

Her rise as a media figure is as curious as it is well, odd. That a woman of such average intelligence has “accomplishments” regularly bestowed upon her is clearly an attempt to suggest otherwise. Idiot? No. An insightful independent journalist with fascinating opinions? Hardly. Ambitious and insincere as all hell? Absolutely. One who studies the curious rise of Ms. Hruska can only be left with the impression that she is but a Trojan Horse or prophylactic for the agenda of others.

So you will forgive me and perhaps others who have questioned who and what is behind the rather curious rise of Rachelle Hruska as one of New York’s leading new media entrepreneurs. That it took this long and the CW High Society scandal for more people to recognize her as an empty vessel or Trojan Horse with powerful backers who have scripted/crafted her legend is interesting indeed.

Her legacy was built through convenient alliances and a legend built by Steve Lewis, Lockhart Steele, self style Harvard social networking guru’s, gawkerites and techies who got a little starry eyed looking at an All American piece of ‘PIE’ (ass) and thus helped turn her into some “Wierd Science” project while lifting style points from competitors and employment standards that would make Norma Rae blush. Like WOW (gushing out loud), check out the hot internet babe. She ain’t quite Cindy Margolis but she can shake and bake and they made her, even as the term FRAUD floats about lingering in the air.
