DailyFill

DailyFill is a celebrity news and gossip destination[1] owned by News Corp and created by their incubator[2] Slingshot Labs. The site launched in December 2008,[3] less than one year after the New York Post's (also owned by News Corp) Page Six shut down their own attempt at a celebrity news site.[4] Drawing immediate comparisons to Yahoo's OMG for its text-light, photo-heavy layout, DailyFill was Twittered by Los Angeles TV and online media princess Shira Lazar[5][6] and has received heavy ad exposure on the Myspace homepage.
