p:abstract
  • Jalopnik is a Weblog owned by Gawker Media, covering cars, car culture, and the automotive business. The blog began publishing in 2004 [http://jalopnik.com/cars/], and is known for its mix of automotive news with an "irreverent" style and tone. [http://blogs.cars.com/kickingtires/2006/12/jeep_concept.html] [http://www.italiaspeed.com/2005/cars/maserati/08/qp_jalopnik/2807.html] As a member of the Gawker.com network, its sister blogs include the widely-read Wonkette, Gawker, and Valleywag. The site gained prominence relatively quickly upon its founding. Its contributors have been included in media events and press conferences hosted by the major automotive manufacturers (which, prior to the rise of the blogosphere in the 2000s, were limited to traditional media outlets.)

The site was referred to by Rolling Stone as a "car-geek blog" in their 2007-11-01 issue. (en)
