The Post (of course) has fun with former governor Eliot Spitzer's Today appearance: Regarding Spitzer's explanation about his hooker flings, "I have tried to address these gremlins, confront them," the Post says Spitzer made it sound "as if he were battling the furious furballs from the '80s horror flick." So the tabloid offers helpful visual aids explaining "This is a gremlin" and "This is a hooker," plus a graph comparing gremlins and hookers. The NY Times also mentions Spitzer's "gremlins" quote but leads with how the getting caught in the act did cross the Steamroller's mind.

What were those things in Gremlins called?
Well, that's Gizmo above!
Mogwai, or something like that..
That is a Mogwai. They become Gremlins after getting wet or eating after midnight. Nothing like early 80s Phoebe Cates.
Ah, thanks for the explanations, Politburo and Savage. I have only been able to watch Gremlins once, because it scared me so much when I was little.
Same! The music still gives me chills.
Here are the three rules from the wise old Chinese man:
No direct sunlight/light - will kill them.
No getting them wet - they will multiply.
No eating after midnight - they will turn to Gremlins
Hmmmm. Phoebe Cates as in 'Moving in Stereo'.
Damn q-tip ruined everything.
OK, I laughed at "should be kept from the light" contrasted with "has sex for money."
I totally just snarfed coffee at that myself.
its amazing how the post connected spitz's "gremlins" comment to the 80s movie "gremlins." post writers, once again, prove that they can be very creative in providing useful discourse to the frothing masses.
bye now, i'm gonna go beat my head against the wall for a while...
Don't people who are honest with themselves wrestle with their "demons"? I mean "gremlins" is a bit cutsie for what he did, come on.
I'm just glad they were able to use that photo again. The Post has been so undersexed lately.
Maybe then dealing with crabs.
Bugs Bunny did gremlins first:

It would be a hilarious if Eliot could get himself voted Gov' again.
The Post is a rag which I do not purchase it. Get out of Spitzer's pants and listen to what the man has to say about what's going on in the world.
