Breakdown Sells Out
January 23rd, 2004 by DeWitt Clinton

You may have noticed the new advertisements running along the right hand column of the Breakdown homepage. If not, please take a look. No, further down. Scroll a little. There you go. Rather sharp, right?

After watching writers such as Peter Rojas, Jen Chung, and Lester Bangs grow fat off of lucrative sponsorship deals, the Board of Director of Breakdown Industries voted unanimously to abandon all pretense of scruples and extend the collective hand of commerce in wait for the golden bird of opportunity to come home to roost.

Breakdown also decided to run advertisements. With luck, one of these two techniques should prove effective.

So if each reader could kindly click on an advertisement once a day and ask 10,000 of your friends to do the same, then Breakdown will quite likely operate at a tidy profit this year and document the extravagance in an striking exegesis on the glorious excesses of wealth. There will also be parties. Big parties. However, if this is unrealistic, then occasionally clicking on an ad or two will go a long way toward defraying hosting costs. But either way, Breakdown is still selling out. Viva le nouveau riche.
