(This will be are only post this week Patriots).
TS has cast a critical eye over Landeryou’s new online spivery, Vexnews.com. In somewhat of a surprising move the unemployed luxury apartment residing (in his Fat Cave) bankrupt and full time failure has appeared to have discarded his Blog of Sleaze for Vexnews which was last valued at $63.
At least he is getting some sort of support from a blogger in the Ukraine!
On further investigation, we came across this page (text below) buried deep in the Vexnews site, highlighting the anomalous philosophy of Vexnews.
And what an interesting read the page is. We have provided the text below, with our questions to Andy in CAPITALS.
“We’re (WHO IS ‘WE’ ANDY?) VEX because that’s as close to Rupert Murdoch’s FOX as we could get without having legal trouble. (NOT UNUSUAL FOR LANDERYOU!)
We love FOX NEWS, even when we don’t agree with it. (WHO IS ‘WE’ ANDY? ARE YOU INCLUDING JOE KLEIN, CAIT CATT ETC?) This news service is our homage to its inspiration. (PLAGIARISM IS A BETTER TERM)
We’re (WHO IS ‘WE’ ANDY?) VEX because vex means to annoy people (JOB DONE LANDERYOU) and that’s precisely what we’ll (WHO IS ‘WE’ ANDY?) be doing when we’re (WHO IS ‘WE’ ANDY?) doing our job (YOU/WE HAVE A JOB ANDY?). Speaking truth to power. (WHAT TRUTH?) Afflicting the comfortable. (YOU ARE VERY AFFLICTING LANDERYOU!) Comforting the afflicted. (HOW EXACTLY ANDY, BY FIRST PAYING BACK YOUR CREDITORS PERHAPS?)
VEX also means debating, provoking, confronting, arguing and irking and we’ll be doing plenty of that too. (AND YOU FORGOT TO ADD “CENSORING”)
This is what journalism should be. (BUT YOU ARE NOT A JOURNALIST ANDY!) Indeed for most of our (OUR? WHO IS “OUR”) history it has been except for its modern odious iteration when it pretended to be something it wasn’t: infallible, uninfluenced by cultural bias, pure and omniscient. It’s never been any of those things.
With lefty dominated newsrooms being slashed and burned across the world, we understand the dimension of our responsibility. (THIS IS ILLOGICAL) We are nothing less than the future of news. (BIG CALL THERE ANDY!) Not on our own of course. Our voice should be just part of the beautiful cacophony. But we will be heard. (YES, IN COURT!)
VEXNEWS is ‘free’ because we cherish freedom. (FREE? BECAUSE YOU COULDN’T SELL IT? BECAUSE YOU HAVE NO READERSHIP, NO AUDIENCE?) Freedom from the fundamentalisms of our time, from the Islamists to the extreme Greenists and all those in between (IN BETWEEN? SOUNDS LIKE 99.99% OF THE POPULATION) who struggle to understand that the vast majority of people just want to live their lives with a minimum of unnecessary meddling from others. (SO WHY DO YOU MEDDLE IN OTHER PEOPLE’S LIVES?)
We’re free because this web service is priceless. (PRICELESS! YOU MEAN VALUELESS)
Free for all because our approach is rigorous, courageous and at times perhaps reminiscent of televised wrestling matches(YOU MEAN FAKED!) (we prefer caged style) (LIKE KFC CHICKEN?).
Dictionary.com says ‘free for all’ means:
1. a fight, argument, contest, etc., open to everyone and usually without rules.
2. any competition or contested situation that is disordered, impulsive, or out of control: a free-for-all at the buffet table.
3. Informal. any enterprise or field of endeavor in which various companies, countries, participants, etc., compete without restriction: a price-cutting free-for-all among local stores. –adjective
4. open to everyone.
And that’s precisely what we’ll (WHO IS ‘WE’ ANDY?) be.”
Patrots are reminded of our story in February when we discovered whether Landeryou had registered the domain name andrewlanderyou.com.
And not to our surprise, he had, or rather someone had.
We trolled a little deeper and we found a number of curious details.
The registrant of the domain name is:
Wan-Fu China, Ltd. (ANDREWLANDERYOU-COM-DOM)
P.O.Box CB-11901
Nassau, BS
Nassau is a lovely place, from everything we’ve heard. Curiously, it is very close to unregulated online gaming spivery hotspot Costa Rica, where Landeryou has spent considerable time.
Then we discovered that wanfuchina.com have been up to no good: caught red handed initiating unsolicited and internet threatening browser pop-up ads and spam.
The internet police, the WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center, has since become involved. The WIPO Administrative Panel on October 30, 2007 threw the ‘virtual’ book at Wanfunchina.
What is additionally interesting is that Wanfunchina has registered a domain name EBET888-COM-DOM. It is only conjecture, but doesn’t EBet sound like something to do with gambling? Online gaming spivery to be exact! Coincidence?
