We interrupt your DACA, government shutdown, feminists are still whiny b!tchs, and politicians generally suck news to honor a hero. I’ve already put a call into the Vatican to beatify this man when God welcomes him home. First, the setup.

It's kind of a long article. Basically an entitled person solicits a freebie from a hotel and gets smacked down.

Bloggers deserve nothing but a swift kick in the ass and maybe a little pepper spray.

I had a sneaky feeling you would post on this.

Just curious what you think the MSM deserves, considering bloggers are at least a bit more honest.

Given that bloggers simply copy MSM stuff a day later,
I'd say they deserve nothing. Cold nothing on a paper plate.

He wants the same thing for the MSM that the rest of us do. You know without asking.

Bloggers are sometimes honest truth seekers, but so many are wannabe journalists who think they are our betters and those deserve more than a virtual smack down.

pretty funny take-down of a "blogger" aka "social media INFLUENCER" looking for free stuff....

======================================================

Dear Social Influencer (I know your name but apparently it’s not important to use names),

Thank you for your email looking for free accommodation in return for exposure. It takes a lot of balls to send an email like that, if not much self-respect and dignity.

If I let you stay here in return for a feature in your video, who is going to pay the staff who look after you? Who is going to pay the housekeepers who clean your room? The waiters who serve you breakfast? The receptionist who checks you in? Who is going to pay for the light and heat you use during your stay? The laundering of your bed sheets? The water rates? Maybe I should tell my staff they will be featured in your video in lieu of receiving payment for work carried out while you’re in residence?

Lucky for us, we too have a significant social media following. We have 186k followers on our two Facebook pages, an estimated 80k on our Snapchat, 32k on Instagram and a paltry 12k on our Twitter, but Jesus Christ, I would never in a million years ask anyone for anything for free. I also blog a bit (www.paulvstenson.com), which as far as I’m aware is another way of saying “write stuff on the internet”. The above stats do not make me any better than anyone else or afford me the right to not pay for something everyone else has to pay for.

In future, I’d advise you to offer to pay your way like everyone else, and if the hotel in question believes your coverage will help them, maybe they’ll give you a complimentary upgrade to a suite. This would show more self-respect on your part and, let’s face it, it would be less embarrassing for you. Here is a little video I produced which you may learn from: http://bit.ly/2mKTDTD

Best regards,

Paul Stenson

P.S. The answer is no.

Good for him. I used to run a small internet-based monogramming business and it never ceased to amaze me the gall people had, trying to get all sorts of free stuff in exchange for “promoting” my business. To their few dozen subscribers.

There have been a good number of bloggers in the past that have exposed what the MSM hides (on purpose).

At least you acknowledge that.

His last line;
“P.S., the answer is no.”
was absolutely necessary. Some people cannot take a hint.
Without that crystal clear closing statement, she would have been like Jim Carrey in one of his characters asking a girl;
“Does this mean, that maybe we have a chance?”

Hey, you can’t get freebies unless you ask. Can’t blame a guy for trying.

I was at a meeting yesterday organized by a blogger for an industry my company serves. There were 60 propos present in the hotel conference room. I’ll bet he paid for his own room.
