IN COLORThen I stole an image from WRDW.com in Augusta, GA for use on my site.
The originalIt doesn't really matter though.
I'm sure WRDW paid good money for that image, but you know how much it cost me?
Zero. Zilch. Nada.
I really don't care.
Never have. Never will.
Fuck them. I'M MARK HALBURN, BITCHES!!!
The stolen imageIf anyone says anything I'll just blame it on my imaginary consultant (like I'd ever take anyone's advice) or my hosting company. I'll just say they did it without my knowledge or permission. I may be forced to fire both of them.
This is just another one of the top flight ethical practices that readers and advertisers have come to expect from me and more proof that PutnamLíve.com is Putnam county's news loser.
Honestly, I don't know how an advertiser can look his customers in the face after advertising on my site.
UPDATE: Once again PutnamLIES.com forces an unethical publisher to do the right thing and discontinue using an image he knew he had no right to use. Halburn has removed the graphic and replaced it with another. Where did the new one come from?
We will continue to hold this slimy fuckstick's feet to the fire.UPDATE 2: The graphic continues to appear on the "Hot Shots" page". If he knew anything about writing web pages that would not happen.
1994 called, Mark. It wants its web pages back, you dumb fuck.
Is it wrong at this point that I'm more upset WRDW actually paid good money for someone to design that piece of shit graphic?
ReplyDeleteThat image was provided by a graphics company that I used to have a subscription with. Stations upload their images for subscribers to use. The image was acquired LEGALLY. I also subscribe to CagleCartoons.com for editorial cartoons. Girl of Words learned that the hard way when she called them to "turn me in" only to be told that I have a subscription.
ReplyDeleteNow, it's time to pull your story because you have libeled me.
As a former resident of Augusta I'm more concerned why the publisher was sniffing around down there.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure whoever designed it put a lot of thought and a little time into it. It might not be the best graphic out there, but it's someone's livlihood that doucheface is stealing. Work time isn't free.
ReplyDeleteUSED to subscribe to? No longer have the subscription?
ReplyDeleteMost subscription services allow you to use their material as long as you actually have a subscription.
So prove it. What's the company? What's the site?
The image should still be available. Let's go look at it.
We all know about your cartoon subscription.
We also know all about the Crazed Cartooner.
If you think this story is going to change on the say so of a known liar, you've got another thing coming. Prove it and we'll talk.
As someone in the know, it should be pointed out to Mr. Hallburn that if he wants to accuse someone of libel, it's incumbent upon him to prove he has, in fact, been libeled. He would (in this case) have to prove he had a subscription to the service, the dates of the subscription and prove he had the rights to them indefinitely.
ReplyDeleteBecause the odds of that are about as good as him weighing less than 200 pounds ever again, I think you're safe.
He's obsessed with that girl. She doesn't even comment about him, he makes it about her. She doesn't write about him. He's dead to her. But he apparently can't handle that, so he creates drama it in some sad attempt to get her to pay attention to him.
ReplyDeleteEver see the Andy Griffith Show where Miss Crump whacks Ernest T Bass with a ruler and he falls in love with her?
ReplyDeleteIt's like that.
She publicly spanked him and he likes it.
You steal photos from my web site and then call me a thief. You have zero credibility!
ReplyDeleteZero credibility?
ReplyDeleteThat's rich, coming from a mental defective like you.
Who's the guy that published cartoons without attribution?
Who's the guy that writes stories that are full of undisclosed conflicts of interest?
Who's the guy that posts under other people's names and insists that they're not you?
Who's the guy that changes old articles and then claims that they never said what they did?
Who's the guy that calls anybody names that doesn't agree with him, but then whines when they won't help him?
Who's the guy that could have sold his house at the beginning but thought he'd get more later and now can't sell it at all?
Who's the white dick that's not a sex machine with all the chicks?
Halburn.
Damn right.
The "new" graphic was first used on PutnamLIVE.com in 2006. You can find it on old stories. You can also check the name of the file. And it returned to use September 17th, about five days before you started this libelous thread.
ReplyDeleteThe image was used on news articles in 2006, 2007, and 2008 as well as some stories in 2009 - BEFORE you posted your libelous story.
ReplyDeleteI don't give a shit when you used the "new" old graphic.
ReplyDeleteThe fact of the matter is that the one you changed was on your front page until yesterday.
Do you want me to bring out the screen grabs?
Halburn - you're a liar. I've looked at all archived pages of your site, going back to 2004, there are ZERO instances of that graphic. YOU'RE A THIEF AND YOU HAVE BEEN CAUGHT. Deal, douche.
ReplyDeleteMark, face it...you're a failure. You fail at life, work, and being a family person...I won't call you a family "man" because you're not a man...you're a joke with a punchline.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you have, really? Your blog sucks, you suck at writing, you have to steal shit and pretend it's yours, and you have ZERO creativity. That kid of mine/yours is likely to follow in your shitsteps...after all, mental illness is genetic, and let's face it...that family tree of yours has branches that are kinds of fucked up. Seriously, they look like they have been burned in a California wildfire.
You're pushing 50, what do you have to show for it? Nothing.

ReplyDeleteYou didn't look very hard. That graphic dates back to 2006. It's been on 2006 news stories for years. And it was on 2009 stories DAYS before it was made to be "an issue" here. I am flattered that you continue to spend so much of your valuable time focusing on my efforts. Obviously I am THE MOST IMPORTANT PERSON in your life!
Hallburn - show me one of your stories where this graphic is featured and I'll believe you. But I've looked through the archived websites, and it's not there. Stop fooling yourself. If you were the most important person in my life I would slit my own throat. Guaran-fucking-teed.
ReplyDeleteLet's discuss the number of times you've gone to my blog... which has NOTHING to do with you? I mean, since we're off topic and all.
I'm sure Hallburn is putting the graphic in an old story even as we speak.
ReplyDeleteJust a side note - I love the old tv show reference. I've had that theme in my head all day now.
ReplyDeleteThe thing is, he can't change the archived material. So even if he did, it'd be moot. He'd be proven an even fatter liar-liar-pants-on-fire than he already is.
