Clarifying his previous post, ONTD mod (and LJ employee) Brenden talks about the reasoning behind the Buzzmedia-ONTD partnership. This has to be the first time I've seen an LJ employee use uh, so many four letter words in an official capacity. Okay, they were quotes.... except for the "Ops at LJ were shitting themselves every time something happened" part. XD
In any event, the Buzzmedia thing is more about the advertising. However, given all of the explicit and adult-like content around LJ, and the problems LJ faces finding adverts, I wonder if Buzzmedia's partnership with LJ mightn't expand? Maybe eventually Buzzmedia might be handling all of non-Cyrillic advertising. Or maybe we'll see two years down the line a press release about SUP handing over English operations to Buzzmedia. After all, they do own the pop culture blogging site Buzznet.
