WeSmirch Besmirches Celebrities
Awhile ago I read about a website called WeSmirch.com over at Techcrunch.
WeSmirch.com is a news aggregator for celebrity news and gossip, plucking the most popular stories from around the web and putting them into a simple, easy to read interface.
If you're into celebrity gossip (and we know you are), this is a great place to get your news. It also strikes me as a good place for IGotNewsForYou writers to pick up on juicy tidbits of celebrity hoohah, twisting the tales of the famous into hilarious, fake news stories. We all have our sources right?
I don't know what WeSmirch's business model is, since there doesn't seem to be any revenue-generating things on the site currently. Maybe there isn't a business model. I'm sort of surprised we're not seeing Google Ads on the site, but I do like the fact that they've kept them off; it keeps the site as simple and clean as possible.
On a side note -- did you know that Oprah has boycotted Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie from appearing on her show together out of friendship to Jennifer Aniston? You didn't know that? Well now you do.
