Dealbreaker.com to Solengo Capital: It's On Like Donkey Kong!

In case you need a break from the video fillers, go to Dealbreaker.com and read about the grudge that newly-formed investment firm Solengo Capital has against them.

Three Cheers for America's First Amendment!

the story continues here too

Some classic Dealbreakerisms from this event:

A very bad way to convince us to change our way of doing things is to threaten us with lawyers. We happen to be staffed by lots of lawyers, and we know even more lawyers. We’ve spilled legal printer’s ink by the barrel and shredded documents by the ton. Lawyers don’t scare us. They just tell us we’ve hit a nerve.

...

That’s what we do around here, Sabad baby. We print things that, frankly, no one has authorized us to print or disseminate. No one but the founding fathers, the tradition of the free press and the First Amendment. (And, of course, Al Gore, inventor of these here internets, our investors, our sponsors and our very own personal founder, Elizabeth Spiers.)
The story continues, of course, because Solengo isn’t taking no--or "suck it"--for an answer. More on that later!


Apparently someone at Solengo Capital forgot that as Oscar Wilde said, the only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about.
