This isn't the first time The Star has attempted to "leech off" someone from the online community (including us!) but that's another story for another time. Today, I want to help the blogger, Mr. Manager, spread word of how The Star stole his story and his picture. Here's his story : Quote:
In the end, The Star's Group Chief Editor (the biggest fish in the pond la...) Datuk Wong Chun Wai apologized to Mr. Manager. But so what? If he's sincere, he would have posted a front page apology (same page as the original stolen article). The Star just stole a story that benefited them financially without even crediting the scoop and picture to Mr. Manager, and all he can do is convey an apology? If WCW is sincere, post a front page apology la... Shameless. Again, I reiterate that The Star is only good for its comics, Classifieds and use as wrapping paper and in extreme emergencies, toilet paper cause it's really hard to use shit to wipe shit off.

On the bus, NBTD, I have to use my hands on something, thus the newspaper. My ears are already busy... Hmm... that means I buy once a year or not at all when I'm broke or busy (not the newspaper but the trip to KL). Hate going to KL though, coz I JUST HATE PUDURAYA!!!
