COMMENT CARNAGE: Landeryou flouts own ruling

The crazy blog Frog, has of course run the line before about linking IPs to particular commentators to his blog as we reported in October and December 2006.
"...Landeryou has installed a new tracking device on his Blog of Shame. The new comments feature, Haloscan, enables the 'pro-comment cancelling' Fuhrer to:
- View, edit or delete comments from the members section or the comment page·
- Ban commenters by single IP or an IP range.
The recording of commentator's IP addresses is a worrying development, as Landeryou actively records IP addresses in order to track down opponents."
Landeryou of course goes on further to write per submitted comments: “... do what the OC occasionally does and asks (sic) whether I'd like to see what I'm writing about someone else written about me. That simple reality check leads me to be tapping away at the backspace key quite a lot more than many would realise.” Landeryou has a well deserved reputation for plastering his Blog of Sleaze with innuendo, unfounded speculation, half truths and a peculiar blend of sleaze. Patriots have long asked, so how does Landeryou reconcile his writings with these editorial criteria? And a supplementary question, which ‘reality’ is Landeryou referring to?
Landeryou further adds: “So please be conscious of that too the next time you question someone else's sexual ethics, fidelity or other aspects of their private life.” Cries of hypocrisy rang out throughout the TS office as staff read this.
Finally, behind crocodile tears, Landeryou ends: “...ultimately I'm responsible for all the comments too so I hope you keep that in mind too the next time you feel the need to say things in the comments section”. Landeryou obviously has forgotten that MUSU, and IQ Corp, and other associated activities, were his responsibility too. Patriots and TS readers have kept those failed responsibilities ‘in mind’ for him.

The Vanishing Landeryou (Updated 2)
The "Vanishing Landeryou" seems to have been found. Still no explanation of where he has been. Everyone remains baffled. Speculation is that Landeryou and Corey Delaney are somehow jointly involved in something.
UPDATE
After no satisfactory explanation, Tim asks Andy: "Are you in gaol?" Be quick to view the comment, as Landeryou will have it deleted as soon as he reads this blog.
ORIGINAL
Andrew Landeryou has not been seen on his Blog of Sleaze since Monday.
Over to you Patriots: where is he? Patriots have already started to provide their constructive suggestions.
We will keep this post open until the truth is revealed.
Please hand this photo around.

Landeryou trumpets, blusters and rants
TS has many great readers and regular contributors. One in particular is Dark Rider. We previously featured Dark Rider’s commentary many months ago, see here.
We thought it apt to give his particular take on Andrew Landeryou extra prominence. His original can be found in response to the story "Access to Andrew Landeryou’s “back-end”".

Landeryou repeats the phrase 'blog of FILTH' as a way of saturating in a message. It's not meant to generate shock value. it's meant to sink in repeatedly.
It's a variation on an old and generally effective political/interview technique of hammering an emotive aspect with little substance to twist the listener/viewer's perception of the person being questioned and deflect or weaken the focus of the questioning.
Also, repetition of a simple slogan such as 'Landeryou's a lying, fuckwit, ALP wannabe' has the benefit of being one of the few things likely to stick in the average listener's/viewer's mind, leaving the basic required message. Look at political advertising for further examples.
Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to do him much good on this blog.
From a purely analytical viewpoint, it's interesting to look at the biased language and half-truths he espouses (similar in style and worthy of Joseph Goebbels; easily as deranged).
Look at the agendas he's pushing and the way he trumpets, blusters and rants to deflect the focus. For example, Solomon Lew has won an injunction (granted by a court of law) to gain access to Landeryou's online accounts. Landeryou rages that this is to shut the OC down.
Closer inspection of the order (thanks to posters on this site) reveals they have requested access to all of Landeryou's online accounts and bank accounts, undoubtedly to determine the extent of his income, which I think is quite reasonable under the circumstances, bearing in mind this is a guy who fled the country rather than answer questions and when he did finally answer questions put to him in court, he couldn't remember any details regarding financial matters and he'd lost the records.
Certainly not someone I'd trust to give an accurate assessment of his own financial position, either because he's too inept or underhanded.
Hope someone gets a photo of him at court (as he apparently likes to do).
Anyway, keep up the good work.
It's long past time 'the whole truth' about Landeryou came out. Here's hoping the court proceedings shed some light.

Is Landeryou a bankrupt’s version of Puss in Boots?
Alternate personality Cait Catt wrote in November in response to the story "Andrew Landeryou’s “cut and run”": that
“The OC remains the best and most trustworthy blog on the net. The OC was justifiably the winner of the inaugural Walkley Blog Award. Andrew Landeryou is honest and ethical.“
Mythical Cait then ended his/her/its commentary with “Go back to Sleazeland Slanderyou. Stop publishing dishonest lies.”

Let’s see:
· Trustworthy?
· justifiably the winner of the inaugural Walkley Blog Award?
· Andrew Landeryou is honest and ethical?
· Stop publishing dishonest lies?
Maybe Landeryou was wearing his extra tight hip high leather boots when he wrote this, restricting blood flow!

Nearly the weekend
"...why does Fat Boy rant and rave against The Age and Crikey yet clearly read every word in the two publications? Why does he while away so much time here? We know he doesn't have a job and doesn't have any friends and needs to fill in the time he doesn't spend in meetings with his legal aid lawyer preparing for his court case but still what a weirdo!"
Lots of questions that Andy Blobby still has yet to answer.
See you all Monday.

HAPPY EASTER: A COSTA RICA UPDATE
Team Slanderyou had intended to post regularly on our ongoing investigation into Andrew Landeryou’s time in Costa Rica. But because of difficulties with finding internet cafes, we were unable to do so.
However, we have extended our time overseas, to include Jamaica, as we hope to get in a few matches of the cricket World Cup.
But, as a teaser, we can reveal that we did find out a number of interesting facts about Landeryou and what he was up to in Costa Rica. More of that to come.
In the meantime, you might want to consider and comment on the following stories and issues raised by others concerning Landeryou’s recent editorials.
- Tim Dunlop, a man that Landeryou has personally vilified on his blog, provided a significant link to a Landeryou non-story. Why Dunlop would provide Landeryou with such a profile is surprising to say the least.
- This sounds a little closer to the truth: “…Andrew Landeryou's rather nasty Melbourne-based, scandal-happy political blog”.
- And more ‘closer’ to the truth: “(Landeryou’s) usual tabloidish character assassination pieces”.
