Vexnews in new (another) plagiarism scandal


Vexnews, the financially cash-strapped online spivery news-free website, has become embroiled in another plagiarism controversy.

Popular and respected Australian blog, Broken Left Foot (BLF), has alerted its readership to Vexnews blatantly lifting its content thus invoking a malicious and evil breach of IP and copyright.

BLF writes: “During my google search for the Sarah henderson story, I came across this article on Vexnews with the following image. I thought the picture looked familiar, so I check this post with an image of the current Corangamite MP Darren Cheeseman. We have a match. I took the photo that Vexnews is currently using without my permission. So I ask Andrew Landeryou the following two questions? 1. Are you going to take it down ASAP and apologise? and 2. Can you spell "T-h-i-e-v-i-n-g C-u-n-t"

Vexnews is not new to proven claims of plagiarism.

In June 2007 it was conclusively proven that Vexnews’ predecessor, the Blog of Sleaze (also sometimes known as The Other Cheek) had “ posted this commentary. It includes references to Hizb ut-Tahrir, the Bankstown City Council, and a YouTube vid. Read Landeryou’s article closely. Then go to Neozionoid’s article which was published EARLIER ON THE SAME DAY. Notice any similarities? The one major stand out, among many, is that Landeryou includes every reference cited by Neozionoid, including the YouTube vid. Coincidence? It’s interesting that Landeryou would do a cut and paste of Neozionoid, who in the past has written that he doesn’t consider Landeryou’s blog to be well regarded. Perhaps that explains why and how Landeryou thought he could get away with it, thinking that the two blogs shared different audiences, and thus he would never be found out.

Further, it was reported that in April 2007, Landeryou was at it again, with an Australian vigilant patriot reporting that: "Andrew Landeryou's rather nasty Melbourne-based, scandal-happy political blog The Other Cheek, needed to make a crude distortion of Juanita Wheeler for a story about a hotly-contested Queensland Greens preselection. So he used this photo, but didn't credit it as he should have under the Creative Commons Attribution Licence (you can use the photo as you like as far as I am concerned, but you have to credit it). Landeryou has now "struck out" twice.”

IP lawyers are altered and alarmed by Vexnews’ frequent contravention of the law. As one lawyer stated: “We’d throw the book at Landeryou, but would be the point? He’d only plagiarize that too!”

Weekend Munchies

Please spare a thought for Andy this weekend, as he finally contemplates a visit to Centrelink - or does he?

Meanwhile, Andy is throwing the term plagiarism about the place like confetti. Seems he has forgotten this!

Andrew Landeryou Cocks It Up, Again!

Andrew Landeryou has made the outlandish claim that on Andrew Quah, he was ‘working’ (OK! We know he doesn’t work) on the story that the Herald Sun “…exclusively ran which by remarkable coincidence was published just as an investigation by the OC Investigations Unit was occurring”.

So now, Landeryou is labeling the Herald Sun with plagiarism claims?

In addition, he has spent an inordinate amount of attention on guess what? Landeryou writes: “We have obscured Andrew Quah's genitalia from the photographs here but the non-worksafe versions are available by clicking the images.”

Reading this, a patriotic reader would ask themselves:

  1. Who is Landeryou referring to as “We”? Freedom Freddy, Delia Delegate, etc are just some of Landeryou’s pseudonyms. Does he think they are real?
  2. Why does Landeryou love blog-fiddling with male genitalia? Is it just a case of penis envy? It’s not the first time he has been fixated with that part of the male anatomy (not that there is anything wrong with it!). But this fixation is rivaling his fetish for deformed chicken.
  3. Why is Landeryou so porn fixated?

So it’s not only patriotic readers of this humble blog who have concerns over Landeryou’s deteriorating mental health and interests in fetishes; concerns have been raised in other quarters.

It is no wonder Landeryou’s blog of sleaze has been rated R for Restricted.

Plagiarist: "...the attention-seeking, loathsome windbag"

Earlier this month, we brought to you one colourful description of Andy Landy: "Disgusting web filth".

It seems that colourful accurate descriptions of Landeryou follow him all over the blogosphere.


This blogger calls Landeryou an "...attention-seeking, loathsome windbag".

Be careful dear readers, as Landeryou may indeed sit on you.

Alternatively, he could call you a plagiarist, when in fact Landeryou has been caught out on at least two occasions on plagiarist charges. And let's not discuss his fake Walkley.

Landeryou caught out again

Kim Jong Il look alike Andrew Landeryou has been embroiled in another breach of copyright controversy.

In January, Slanderyou reported that

Landeryou posted this commentary. It includes references to Hizb ut-Tahrir, the Bankstown City Council, and a YouTube vid. Read Landeryou’s article closely. Then go to Neozionoid’s article which was published EARLIER ON THE SAME DAY. Notice any similarities? The one major stand out, among many, is that Landeryou includes every reference cited by Neozionoid, including the YouTube vid. Coincidence?

It’s interesting that Landeryou would do a cut and paste of Neozionoid, who in the past has written that he doesn’t consider Landeryou’s blog to be well regarded. Perhaps that explains why and how Landeryou thought he could get away with it, thinking that the two blogs shared different audiences, and thus he would never be found out.

Team Slanderyou can now report that in April, Landeryou was at it again, with an Australian vigilent patriot reporting that:

"Andrew Landeryou's rather nasty Melbourne-based, scandal-happy political blog The Other Cheek, needed to make a crude distortion of Juanita Wheeler for a story about a hotly-contested Queensland Greens preselection. So he used this photo, but didn't credit it as he should have under the Creative Commons Attribution Licence (you can use the photo as you like as far as I am concerned, but you have to credit it). "

Landeryou has now "struck out"twice.

ANDREW LANDERYOU: PLAGIARIST NOT “WELL REGARDED” BY VICTIM

Andrew Landeryou is simply a one-man train wreck: the accident is horrific, but you dare not turn away.

The Team Slanderyou Special Investigations Unit has listed Landeryou’s many offences:

- claiming to have won a Walkeys Blog Award, when no such award exists
- claiming to be a journalist, when in fact that is a blatant misrepresentation


- being a tireless promoter of KFC family buckets and single-handedly causing the obesity epidemic

- for services to creative defamation and sleaze

- for services as a clinical case study of narcissism, and

- attempting to shut down blogs.

Now, the Team Slanderyou Special Investigations Unit can add a new one: plagiarism.

Landeryou posted this commentary. It includes references to Hizb ut-Tahrir, the Bankstown City Council, and a YouTube vid.

Read Landeryou’s article closely. Then go to Neozionoid’s article which was published EARLIER ON THE SAME DAY. Notice any similarities? The one major stand out, among many, is that Landeryou includes every reference cited by Neozionoid, including the YouTube vid. Coincidence?

It’s interesting that Landeryou would do a cut and paste of Neozionoid, who in the past has written that he doesn’t consider Landeryou’s blog to be well regarded. Perhaps that explains why and how Landeryou thought he could get away with it, thinking that the two blogs shared different audiences, and thus he would never be found out.
