Techdirt On TV?
from the someone-want-to-explain-this? dept
Okay, I'm a little confused by all of this, but I've noticed a little bit of traffic coming in from a page at CBS Marketwatch talking about their television program this weekend. They're doing a story on FuckedCompany, and under "more on these stories" they have a link here to Techdirt. This implies that maybe Techdirt will be mentioned during this broadcast, though that's anything but clear. Certainly no one from CBS Marketwatch contacted us or anything. So, if you happen to be around, take a look and see if they talk about us. While it used to be that Techdirt would get lumped in with the Slashdot-wannabe sites, now we're getting lumped in with the FC-wannabes? Update: Okay, I just watched the episode. As expected, they lumped us in as a FC wannabe, as if we were created after the dot come bubble burst, instead of more than three years ago (as we actually were). Who needs fact checking these days?Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
