David Wetherell Suing Jet Maker
from the what's-he-doing-with-a-jet? dept
CMGI's David Wetherell is pissed off that the new jet he recently bought himself has had two engines fail in the past few months. So, he's suing the manufacturers of the plane. I can sort of understand that. What I don't understand is why this guy who has watched his company completely collapse, and his own public persona change rapidly from "visionary" to "scam artist", is suddenly spending $23 million on a private jet?
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.
