Interesting theory—which unfortunately doesn't fit the facts.

It appears to me that the Webnoders were offended that Business Wire had tried to define and enforce their trademarks and professional parameters,… and that the Webnoders took to their usual tactics of flaming and attacking when anyone doesn't agree with them

Even though there is some question whether having 'Business Wire' in the byline (simply as a matter of historical record) is an infringement, Webnode happily complied and removed it anyway, without any additional 'editorial' or comment.
