I completely agree with this. I don't understand how an email from a Moviefone employee (just trying to do his/her job the way it works in their industry) asking for help from a sister site gets blown into AOL censoring TC.

It seems like a more appropriate response would have been to email the Moviefone person back with a, "sorry, that's not how we do things here."



Under the new AOL Way, linkbaiting seems to be a good thing. :)


No. This is exactly how TC has always worked. They are a nothing more than linkbaiting, content firm dressed as a legitimate news outlet.


Yeah everyone wins, the guy at AOL can be like the the movie company, well I tried but I have no control there, and any attention to the link bait article helps the AOL bottom line.
