Pam seems to hate Nadin for some reason. I don't know if Nadin beat her out for DOTY and Pammie is butt-hurt about it or Pam feels like she looks good by being only slightly more literate than Nadin. Either way it's a short bus slap fight.

aw, a former poster's (paper) blog didn't get enough donations for them to do what they love
https://reportingsandiego.com/2017/12/04/we-love-what-you-do-does-not-pay-the-bills/
and can't pay the bills so they will go find jobs like the rest of us.
I even offered to proof free of charge but that was rejected.

From ReportingSanDiego:
Update, We have decided that we need to rush the legal affairs (Legal affairs??), to make sure they happen THIS YEAR. So we have removed the donate button. To any who donted, we thank you. To any who supported us, we thank you.
<snip>
We posted we were close to making that final decision on Friday. And we were correct. For the most part, people do not support media they consume. Thank you to the two of you who did step to the plate. Truly, thank you.
Now three. :rofl:
<snip>
We will keep the site up for at least 15 days. That way, if you want to keep an article, grab it. By the end of the month, we are going to bring the site down. I am not going to pay to essentially keep an archive going. The only way we will reverse that decision, up until we file legal paperwork, is if enough donors come through to reverse that stark economic decision.

To truly appreciate Nadin's genius you need to read her whole article. She blames her readers for her failure. As expected, her grammar and spelling is true to form.

I'm on a mobile or I'd grab the whole screed and row it over. :rofl:
Also, we need to think how this might potentially affect content at the DUmp. Will nads return?????

9. Your point is?I live in the middle of the Thomas Fire territory and evacuated at 11pm last Monday...
...with the clothes on my back. I've written about that elsewhere at DU so no need to repeat.
N is a regional reporter -- San Diego/SoCal is her region, and believe me, fires are important news here.

6. That former poster does a lot of good solid investigative reporting.
No reason for you to diss her or act like what she does isn't a real job.
Why would you be so pointlessly meanspirited to someone who is one of the good people in the world?
She never did you or anyone else here any harm.

Question.
How much money does it require to have a blog?
<<<ran Scamdy.com on $9.95 a month, a payment to godaddy for something.
That was it; not a cent more than $9.95.
Now, if cousin nadin were truly public-spirited, as Democrats, liberals, and primitives are alleged to be, she'd do her "investigative" reporting on her own dime (as we do here in the DUmpster and the Sandhills forum)--and that of course suggests an unanticipated opportunity, some story or series of hers attracting the notice of a legitimate news enterprise, and she'd end up on their payroll.

I read a few articles from that website and it is just barely above Air America in usefulness as a news source. ::)

What's with "legal affairs" and "legal paperwork"? Is that circumlocution for "file for bankruptcy"?

For all nads' arrogance and lack of mastery of the English language, I don't think she represented her blog as more than San Diego and SoCal news that people outside of that area might find of interest.
dtj's Gloat-ometer is pegging in the "Classless" range.

To any who donted, we thank you.
I donted. I hope all of you donted, to2.

An e-mail to Go Daddy informing them the domain for Nadine's failed blog is up for sale.

8. Any person deserves to make a living doing what feels worthwhile to them...
And journalism is worthwhile. Not everyone can be Rachel Maddow, but we need people out there trying.
Just sayin'

So I go over and read the whole thing.
When the cousin's talking about "expenses," she's obviously talking about she or her husband actually and physically covering stories, as if they need to be there to collect the facts.
The internet's full of facts, most of which are free for the taking.
Why can't cousin nadin cover the wildfires, for example, while lounging on the couch in the living room, munching on chocolate bon-bons as if popcorn.
But I suspect she's always done it that way anyway.

My guess is that it started with Teacher dtj commenting on nads' unmastery of English vocabulary, grammar, and syntax. nads, being proud beyond all basis in reality, likely declined to recognize Teacher dtj as a superior being, and matters spiraled downward from there.

Good-bye. Best of luck in your future endeavors.
I left this message with nads. She deserved that little.
