I know I'm certainly not one to talk, but why do you get so bent out of shape about what ANN does? They're not exactly getting in your way of spreading news on your own.
I will restart writing there soon, been meaning to. And as for ANN, because they keep yelling how they're journalists and have standards.
Their Right Turn Only column covering manga, last I checked titles for a year or two, ever single import manga review was either a JManga title or a scanslated one. Their simulcast review covered Robot Girls Z way before Crunchyroll announced the simulcast, when it only aired on Toei's channel.
They covered the Space Dandy leak but never linked or mentioned the source (because it's Nyaa), to top it off, Justin Sevakis called people who posted the leaked ep "destructive psychopaths". And it's funny cause it was Madman who accidentally published the episode for everyone in Australia to see.
They happily embed 3rd party video reuploads to make it easier for the visitors or to bypass region locks. Only reason they don't have their own youtube channel is because they know Japan (hi Aniplex) would probably kill it with the 3 copyright strikes rule pretty damn fast.
They'll happily take photos from other pages, blog, twitter accounts, because somehow in their minds if you link back on the bottom article makes it ok to pull whatever you want from other sources.
I had some sympathy for ANN until they started posting magazine leaks, but since they're so protective of their "content" they watermarked every image with a shortened article url and basically slapped a big transparent ANN logo over copyrighted artwork that isn't theirs to begin with. Funny how they never call these articles leaks, event though they break emargo dates.
Anyways, the list goes one and I'm pretty sure most people who know their shit could probably chime in with a bunch of hilarious stuff... like their reviews.
TL;DR: They basically don't realize you can't have your cake and eat it too. Fuck them.
