Comparing news right this minute...

CNN- Nonstop, limited- commercial coverage of the deadly earthquake in Haiti.

FOX- Earthquake is lead story on international news, but only part of the overall news.

MSNBC- Ed Schultz talking about politics- yelling for Obama to not tax the middle class.

It's really bad when FOX does a better job of reporting breaking news than ANYBODY else, never mind the network which is in essence Fox's sworn enemy...

Ooooooh boy.

Anime Expo neck-deep in drama.

From here, it looks like a case of fans v. corporation.

It should be obvious that, if the corp wins (which is to say Lattanzio), AX is going to go straight to Suckville with easy connections through to Ripoff City. That said... it was almost certainly fans who let it get this far in the first place, and fans who thought getting a Hollywood insider to be the CEO of a nonprofit corporation was a good idea.

No great interest to me, except as a flaming beacon of What Not to Do With Your Con, but some of you have gone to AX in the past and might have a stake in what comes out of this.
