About:
Richard Blakeley is the head of the Gawker Media Video Department, where he calls the media into question with documentarian precision and voyeuristic abandon. A graduate of the Pratt Institute, Blakeley emerged in the world of video a delicate flower, armed only with his Canon XL1 and devilish good looks. He has since built a career defining the role of video in the emerging world of social networking and web-based communities. Blakeley believes that video is a necessary component of the future of new media as a vehicle for pushing the envelope and unifying various niches and industries. He also enjoys watching news anchors swear on camera.
