When Integrity Goes Out the Window

Written by Cassandra on Feb 19th, 2008 | Filed under: Uncategorized

in·teg·ri·ty  - adherence to moral and ethical principles; soundness of moral character; honesty. 

As a blogger, I have tried to show integrity in all that I do. When I post a story, I try to label all of my sources. Isn’t that what we all should do?? Well today, a well known site crossed that line: Bossip.  This well known site used scans from this site for their own and did not give proper credit.

Where has the integrity gone? I believe there is enough room for all of us.

This is not the first time that Bossip has done this. They did it to Necole Bitchie and I am sure they have done it to countless other sites. I love Bossip, but I am not sure I can visit the site anymore.

    Cassie this happens time and time again. Large blog sites seek out stories from smaller sites and post them without crediting. What is so hard about printing a source for your story. The thing is, those sites are so big that they want people to believe that they are the first with the pics or exclusive contacts send those pics when it’s not like that. It’s enough room for everyone so I have no idea what’s so hard about putting a link that says image source. Remember they stole my pics and I had my damn watermark on them. how shady is that? All I can do is shake my damn head..

    Thanks, Necole. I guess the larger sites have forgotten their humble roots and that the rules still apply.

    Yeah, I remember..Had us all in an uproar (esp. Xilla).

    when it comes to those big sites i’m relentless, I go on them just to steal the picks because like you said cassie they have forgotten how they started out. I’m sorry that they stole your pics and a shame. Like necbit said it’s not hard to post a damn link….I guess in this blog world it’s every person for themselves. I guess that’s why i’m greatful for my affiliates and the other sorrounding blog sites. Those big bully mofo’s can kiss my azz ( props t o C+D she always links up)

    Right, all it takes is 2 seconds to post a link. I dont think I am asking for too much. The larger sites wants us to credit them, then show the same courtesy.

    I totally agree with all of the posts, but I am upset when other small sites takes your stuff and doesn’t give credit! Damn, it only takes a few seconds!

    @ Aura - I am just realizing how craptastic Bossip is.

    @ Hotsauce - calm down. We dont need you in the hospital with a clogged blood vessel.

    @ Kreative - I agree.

    Sweetie I understand how you feel. I have had other sites stole my shit that I spent hours hunting for on the net and act like they did not get it from my site. But you know they are right because I did not take the liberty of tagging the photos I post. Now whenever I have something on here that all sites does not have…oooh! best beleive RBTF is going on there. Anyways in a shorter version F*CK them and keep it moving.It won’t be a long road for them

    I prefer the smaller sites anyway. Never been to bossip until I clicked through your link.
