ADD THE TINSELTOWN PRESS TO OUR BEAUCOUP NATIONAL LOVE
FITSNews – April 19, 2008 – By now, we’re used to getting shoutouts on our political coverage from national media like FOX News, Harper’s Magazine, LA Times and The Wall Street Journal.
You see, unlike other blogs which exist solely to provide paid political advertising to their lame ass clients, we actually break real news around here.
Of course, this week our site has finally started generating some attention where we’ve always wanted it to - Tinseltown.
In fact, our recent stories about Jake Gyllenhaal’s meltdown and James Caan’s departure from the set of the movie “Nailed” have been picked up by literally dozens of celebrity gossip websites, including Hollywood.com, CelebrityBlend.com, The Defamer, and our personal favorite of the bunch, idontlikeyouinthatway.com.
We’d just like to thank the Academy …

sic(k) willie is full of bat guano. If he is going to talk about other blog’s “lame ass clients,” they he needs to list his “lame ass clients.”
sic(k) willie claims to break news, but all he breaks is “wind.”
Like most people who “break wind” he can cause a stink, but it always clears up after a few minutes with no real impact.
That pretty much describes sic(k) willie. Remember, he suggested it.
sic(k) willie’s nothing but a fart in the wind.

Willie, is BIN’s URL/GUTS ID in Lexington?

FITNA,
After the whole Baker Maultsby fiasco (in which we were roundly and rightly condemned for revealing the identity of a commenter), we have adopted a strict policy of keeping such information confidential.
The only way we would ever disclose the name of a commenter would be if a court ordered us to do so.
As ridiculous as BIN’s speech is, we allow it because even idiots have a right to be heard. Well, that and it amuses us.
Also, as most veteran commenters on FITSNews are by now aware, you can enter any “name,” “e-mail” and “url” information you want into our comment boxes. There is no way we would be able to find out who you were unless a) you say something libelous and b) someone sues us to find out who you are.
BIN’s comments are consistently libelous against our founding editor, in that numerous definitive statements are contained in them which the authors know to be false. This is how our attorneys were ultimately able to break through the sophisticated encryption software BIN uses to post comments on this website and make a positive identification.
As for revealing BIN’s identity, we are choosing to honor our promise of confidentiality for commenters in the wake of the Maultsby fiasco, and simply allowing the marketplace of ideas – and perhaps at some point, the legal process – to run its course.

Poor BIN, mired so deep in envy. You are wise to stay above it, FITSNews. It is really quite a sad display, but makes me thankful that I don’t have to wrestle with such strong feelings of inadequacy.

FITSNews Lawyers,
Stay out of it.
