KURTZ: And joining us now from Philadelphia is the editor of Deadspin, A.J. Daulerio.

Let me ask you your reaction to this. "New York Times" columnist Richard Sandomir writing about Deadspin, "Snarky, mean-spirited and unbound by more rigorous principles of old line journalism."

A lot of mainstream media criticism of you over the Favre story. What's your reaction?

A.J. DAULERIO, DEADSPIN: (INAUDIBLE).

KURTZ: All right. You'll declare victory on that one.

You first wrote about this -- for people who don't know the back- story -- in August after conversations you had with Jenn Sterger. She said she didn't want her name attached to this. She certainly wanted the Favre story out.

DAULERIO: (INAUDIBLE).

KURTZ: You did attach her name to it and you published some private e-mail correspondence between you and her. Why? Was that unfair to her?

DAULERIO: (INAUDIBLE).

KURTZ: It sounds like you feel a little guilty though.

DAULERIO: (INAUDIBLE).

KURTZ: When you got these texts and the pictures allegedly from Favre to Jenn Sterger, did you pay for that material?

DAULERIO: (INAUDIBLE).

KURTZ: And just to clarify, you didn't pay Jenn Sterger. You paid somebody else who provided this to you?

(CROSSTALK)

KURTZ: So I wasn't going to go there, but you just went there.

A.J. Daulerio, thank you very much for joining us.

DAULERIO: (INAUDIBLE).

KURTZ: Obviously a controversial story, and we appreciate it.

DAULERIO: You're quite welcome.

SVP just dropped an F-bomb on SportsCenter. Will he be suspended for two weeks, or is that only reserved for discussion of go-go boots and poor attempts at weight loss? #tips
@CM_Wang: +1. Stop Now. We have a winner.
