Threat, Meant for Baby Hitler's Family, Sent to Wrong Family

The saga of Baby Adolf Hitler Campbell continues! Outrage over a NJ family's, uh, outrage that ShopRite refused to inscribe a cake with "Happy Birthday Adolf Hitler"—for 3-year-old Adolf—has sparked more bad ideas. Police say that a death threat was sent to the wrong recipient: Melanie Campbell, not related to Heath and Deborah Campbell (pictured) who did name their son Adolf Hitler, got a letter saying "Your hateful thoughts will cause your death and the deaths of your children. You will not be able to......

No ShopRite Cake for Baby Hitler

When you name your baby Hitler—or, in this case, Adolf Hitler Campbell—perhaps you are stacking the deck against him. A NJ family is upset that ShopRite refused to personalize a cake with "Happy Birthday Adolf Hitler." The boy's father, Heath Campbell, a "Nazi fan" (his other kids are JoyceLynn Aryan Nation and Honszlyn Hinler Jeannie) and Holocaust denier who decorates his home with swastikas, told reporters yesterday, "There's a new president and he says it's time for a change. Well, then it's time for a change. They......

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad headed to New York today, but not telling Iranian state-run TV, "The United States is a big and important country with a population of 300 million. Due to certain issues, the American people in the past years have been denied correct and clear information about global developments and are eager to hear different opinions." He added that the U.N. General Assembly was an "important podium" for Iran's views to be expressed. And Ahmadinejad also appeared at a parade in Tehran. But not just any kind of parade. From......

Can we just never hear about O.J. Simpson again? The whole idea the book and planned TV special from O.J. Simpson who explains how he would have killed his wife if he did it is just so disgusting and exploitive, we can't believe it was ever allowed. But we're naive and such is life, and the story has been getting crazier, with the book's publisher Judith Regan issued a statement saying she published the book because she was a victim of abuse. I made the decision to publish......

On Sundays Gothamist runs opinion pieces relevant to life in New York and reviews of recent books and performances. The judgments expressed below are entirely those of the author. It’s hard to imagine a quirkier, more compelling idea for a character than a half-Irish salesman, jazz aficionado, and ladies’ man who also happens to be Adolf Hitler’s nephew. It might not even be possible to dream up such a creation, and in fact Mark Kassen (who was featured in a Gothamist interview last week) didn’t have to, because......

It's not a good time for David Pullman. His creation, the David Bowie Bond, faces a downgrade. And he was finally kicked out of his apartment at 40 West 67th Street, after a protracted fight with his neighbors and co-op board. The Times examines what happened at the Upper West Side prewar: Pullman felt his neighbors were too noisy and from that, it seems Pullman freaked out. He accused them of running an illegal book binding business, being anti-Semitists, playing music too loudly, and......
