Max Blumenthal: Image Thief

Posted by: Rob Bluey In: Politics



Max Blumenthal: Image Thief, originally uploaded by Rob Bluey.

Our friends at the Family Research Council are having a little fun with left-winger Max Blumenthal, who “hotlinked” an image on FRC’s website and now looks like a fool for doing so. The above image shows what Blumenthal’s Huffington Post story looks like now. Here’s a link to the original.

UPDATE — 12:24 p.m.: This isn’t the first time Huffington Post has been caught hotlinking. Kevin Aylward at Wizbang wrote about another example in 2005.

John McCain’s people made the same mistake on his MySpace page, jacking Mike Davidson’s stylesheet and hotlinking one of his images directly.

Rob, have you considered acting as a technology consultant to politicians and their ever-inept campaign folks?

Just saw two helicopters flying over Thurmont, MD. I wonder if the Obamas are visiting Camp David?

I blame Obama for all this road work. Stupid stimulus. http://yfrog.com/0jxxtbj

What idiot decided it was a good idea to do road work on the George Washington Parkway midday Friday? http://yfrog.com/15rsjj

@MelissaTweets Nope, I'm in Atlanta. Don't think there's a Chick-fil-A at Reagan.

Took a detour to terminal A. Nothing is better than a Chick-fil-A chicken biscuit for breakfast. http://yfrog.com/0vgjyj
