Can't find it now, but there was an article (the guardian I think? follow the money) that stated that the owner of zerohedge was getting divorced and that was causing his financial details to become public. The journalist then started to receive threatening calls from the owner's father (from an eastern European country.. Bulgaria? Can't remember). But basically the details becoming public, or her testimony basically revealed that the change in tack by ZH was due to the fact that it paid better than simple financial blogging, now that the Financial crisis was over. So ZH now actively courted right wingers and possibly Russian financiers. Really need to find that article again, it was a real eye-opener to the motives of people financing these sites. I used to read ZH a bit during the FC, but recoiled in horror the last time I was there. |
