the(new)mediaslut

..for the weekends, starting Friday to Monday.

Private host highlighted that this blog will be done for the weekends for mighty migration and server overall.

Looking to be back online on Tuesday..

The head of the BBC news bureau in Bangkok, Jonathan Head, has been accused of lese majeste by Thai authorities for an unspecified comment he made at the Foreign Correspondents Club of Thailand.

The alleged comment, details of which were not given, was made when Head was moderating a panel at the Foreign Correspondents’ Club of Thailand entitled, “Coup, Capital and Crown”, on 13 December 2007.

Police Major General Wattanasuk Mungkitchakarndee from the Bangkae police station lodged the formal complaint after he reviewed videos and transcript from the panel, though said that Head’s comments were not fit to be repeated in the public domain.

Wattanasuk has previously lodge a similar complaint against Minister to the Prime Minister’s Office Jakrapob Penkair for a comment he also made at the FCCT.

Thailand has some of the strictest laws in the world regarding lese majeste.

It is interesting to see these many PR agencies visiting themediaslut in 2006!

Wikipedia added a new meaning to the word "slut" and this themediaslut fully endorses it.

Wikipedia:

"It may be used by the person concerned as an expression of pride in their status,"

Ahem!!  Ahem!!! 

According to the urbandictionary.com, the difference is..

Similar to a media whore, except desperate enough to seek attention even when there’s no chance of monetary gain. (At least a whore gets paid.)

"That PR agent is such a media slut that she’ll show up at other people’s press conferences just hoping for a chance to make a statement."

Looks like themediaslut will die an old poor spinster…

The tms techcast was short lived.

All techcasts will now be hosted on the Flacknet.com domain, where all the flacks hang out at night.

See you there. 

themediaslut will be posting blogs entries from writely.com.

The text editor in the Wordpress CMS will be use mainly for HTML editing purpose

At least, Writely has spell check.

themediaslut has gone beta…

Beta is the new cool..

Ohh, forgot to say this above logo was created here .  

Don Sambandaraksa, for The Bangkok Post, columnised themediaslut two week back in The Bangkok Post .

It was also heard the 20 attendees at the Blogcon Thailand was asking Don if he was themediaslut. 

Ah.. themediaslut’s popular in Thailand…..

So here is the official statement from themediaslut.

"Thank you for invites to Blogcon Thailand, but themediaslut was not able to attend as she had already had plans made out for the weekend in Singapore," says themediaslut."

"In addition, themediaslut thanks Don for doing a column on her, but Don is not themediaslut."

After posting the photos from the protest in Thailand over the weekend, themediaslut has been listed on the following sites.
