Raj still reinventing the wheel
in jammies.
I figured, not being very bright and all, that someday in the near future I'd figure out (even vaguely) what genuis concept Pajamas Media pitched to investors. Now it's clear THEY don't even know what they started.
I figured, it had to be something really great! Something beyond my limited intellect...how else would they garner SEVEN million dollars to do what many other sites already do, without that kind of cash. In fact, many other sites do this kind of thing without ANY investment, whatsoever.
Honestly, I'm embarrassed to be typing about Pajamas Media, Roger L. Simon and his cadre of shackled union workers. But it's a holiday weekend, and now the traditional time to rag on other conservatives.
Everything has already been said. I think.
They swindled millions for having nothing more than a domain name. I can't add anything insightful to this mess. And yet I still feel like the topic is ripe for ridicule.
It's only a matter of time before a major paper picks up this big debacle, which puts all blogs in a bad light (involved or not).
It's time the blogosphere's big failure to go the corporate, mainstream route hit the mainstream media. Question will be, who? The New York Times? The LA Times?
Useless webpage, fancy launch party, 8 staff members and 70 prisoners? 7 Million dollars.
Scorned by the ones they scorn? Priceless.
And delicious.

Correct me if I'm wrong (as if you wouldn't anyway), but didn't they swindle millions without even having the domain name?

But it's the WRONG domain name

That wasn't a launch, it was a lurch.
