Defending ex-SIMers now, are you Jon? Why does this not surprise me?

But, since you asked:

1) Wired, very closely after the articles appeared, did, in fact, hire an ex-SIMer. Thank you, by the way, for providing that information.

2) Direct comments from Pay Hayton making that allegation, during our coffee chat in Boston. At this time he informed me that Mr. Batkin of SIM and Mr. Rossetti of Wired held a close relationship.

3) That the former owner of Wired, Mr. Rossetti, was alleged in an article from The Industry Standard: The Network, to have issued several farewell "fuck-yous," (a direct quote from the Industry Standard article). You'll remember that quote prompted Aleta to get me bounced from SI, even though I was then, as I am now, quoting intelligent material.

4) Read the very first Wired article regarding Zulu's purchase of Softbank Interactive Marketing. Do you see any kind of slant from what was written in the first article to what was written in the second article? You know what an about-face looks like, don't you Jon? Well, that's what Wired did. When did it do this? Very shortly after the ex-SIMers got canned.

A lot of companies do a 'major reorganization'..... how many has Kodak, and IBM done ? take a few months..... Lots of 'former' employees have nothing nice to say.... look at the companies today.
ZULU does an ongoing 'reorganization'...... a handful of 'employees ?', might take a few years....... look at the company TODAY. same old same old.
