So the thievery corporation as we're now calling them over here has refused to publish ANYONE's comments surrounding their blatant plagiarism of our piece. Not only that, but a few other people have reported back to Honey, via her link that they read both and think she was stolen from.
I've been asked to not spend too much more time on this, but I've been writing for years and editing for practically just as long and bloggers need to learn that just because there's no regulation on the World Wide Web doesn't mean you can take people's work and pass it off as your own. You can still be sued AND fined. You can still get fired if yours is a paying gig. You can lose credibility. I haven't seen a lie as blatant as their defense in this matter since the whole "Weapons of Mass Destruction" debacle, and we all know how that ended for that guy...
Today is an interesting day. Everyone is filing their pieces. I did some photo edits earlier. Just listenend to a mix tape that a friend made me with some pretty good Beck remixes on it.
I took a meeting not too long ago and now have the rest of my afternoon to sit back, chill and enjoy this first day of May.
