That ‘Joss Whedon Fan Club’ Issue
Remember back in April, when I asked why a piece of shit website with nothing of substance to offer the effort had been brought on as a global sponsor of Can’t Stop the Serenity?
In the days after that question was asked, those behind the mysterious “Joss Whedon Fan Club” magically added some information to their website to make it seem more current — although in the process of doing so they broke substantial portions of the website, thereby maintaining the clueless and amateurish nature of the endeavor.
As for that original question, which never was answered by anyone in authority, there now is what appears to be the answer, found in this interview with this year’s global coordinator: “I … help run the Joss Whedon Fan Club.”
And that would explain why a half-assed and out-of-date (until they were caught at it by me, at which point they became less out-of-date but no less half-assed) endeavor that’s existed for years as little more than a storefront enticing you to buy things from them somehow ended up as a global sponsor of CSTS.
