Omaha Steve (30,993 posts) Profile Journal Send DU Mail Ignore

Can you help us with an act.ly please? (specificaly asked to post this on the DU!)

There was an article published about Netroots NY that names me, Asher Huey (DC activist may of you probably know) and Liz Jenkins (new media person at SEIU's 32bj in NYC). The article is pretty good except that it calls us hackers. I'm not a hacker and if I were I certainly wouldn't advertise it by talking about it at a panel at a public conference. We're having a little fun pushing back against them with this act.ly petition. It would be great if everyone could tweet/sign it and spread this around to anyone you know 

Hey IncMagazine please stop calling progressive activists “hackers.” Please correct your story. http://act.ly/5dv RT to sign

Petition:

Inc. Magazine published an article mentioning online political activists Beth Becker, Elizabeth Jenkins and Asher Huey after their appearances at the progressive political conference Netroots New York.

In all, the article was a fair and informative rundown of some of what was said, except for one glaring and unmistakable error. The article lists the political activists as “hackers” who could “wreak havoc” on your company. None of the three mentioned are hackers, have the ability to hack anything and object to being identified as such. Additionally, there is no mention of any sort of malicious hacking, only political and social advocacy through social media tools.

Since Act.ly was mentioned in the article, we thought it’d be fun to demonstrate to them how we don’t hack, we ask.

Inc. Magazine should correct the story so as not to mislabel/misidentify the activists and to not mislead their readers.

The article is here: http://www.inc.com/tim-donnelly/meet-the-hackers-who-could-take-down-your-business.html

You can follow the activists here:

Beth Becker: spedwybabs
Elizabeth Jenkins: elizaj
Asher Huey asherhuey

Thanks!!

One wonders what that's all about, and apparently so do the primitives, as none have come to this campfire.

Note this is 100% kpete-ish copy-and-paste bullshit from some moonbat woman. No one called Steve Dawes a hacker.

He's far, far too DUmb.

I have no idea what this is all about, but I needed to remind my fellow Nebraskan I'm thinking of him.

I think Stevie boy is mistaking "hackers" with "hacks", as in "political hacks".

Frank, I think "Chief Sobbing Hatchet" might be my favorite DUmmie name you've ever come up with. Genius.

If he does run, that nickname (Chief Sobbing Hatchet) needs to get into the lexicon of the race. :fuelfire:

Actually, sir, there's two motives for this thread.

I already mentioned one; that I needed to let my fellow Nebraskan know I'm thinking of him, concerned for him, even if I had to use a basically worthless campfire to do it (and this was all I found).

The second motive is I'm trying to come up with a reasonably good name to re-baptize him, as "Omaha's Ed Norton" while okay, isn't great.  The past few days I've used other names in headlines for him--I forget what they were, though, which signifies they weren't that good.  ("Chief Weeping Bull" I think was one of them.)

I'll keep trying variations until I find one that works best.

I still consider my re-baptizing BenBurch as "Fat Che" as my best work, and my re-christening Redstone as both "the bird-smacking stoned red-faced primitive" and "Chief S itting Bull" nearly as good.

The second name of course was sarcasm directed against Redstone's alleged, and probably mythical, far-distant remote Native American ancestry, and Omaha Steve of course is another one of that sort; to me, the big guy looks 1/64th Native American and 63/64ths Polish (others insist Irish).

Fat Che was indeed a classic, as was Chief S hitting Bull. "Chief Sobbing Hatchet" evokes memories of that classic sitcom "F-Troop," for some reason.

.....Chief S hitting Bull......

Uh, no, sir.

"Chief S itting Bull," no second "h".

I had a defective "h" key on the keyboard I was using at the time.
