Of course you're also talking about a company who:

1. In the prior company/corporate structure had million of dollars seized by the United States government. It's been alleged by many that many of the same people in upper management at Mansef are still around at Manwin behind the scenes (I'm not a reporter so I can't document all this but I've seen people like Robbie mention it here recently). Insert all the other shit Mansef did here.

2. The CEO was arrested and jailed within the last year for tax related charges and there is still an active investigation ongoing.

3. Probably has well over a hundred (if not thousands) messages from content owners on GFY upset over their content being illegally posted on this company's site.

4. The company you work for actually sued them and one point for copyrights but decided to settle with them. Upper management seemed to hint once that the reason for the settlement had to do with finances and making sure people like you still had a job.

So these aren't industry angels or fine upstanding citizens here. Just because your company settled and probably came to some other type of financial arrangement does not mean the rest of us are likewise happy.

I agree about the intern thing being bullshit but there is a difference between simply saying that and continually being one of the first people to line up on the forum to kiss Fabian and Manwin's posterior and act like they are innocent industry saviors being unjustly persecuted by an irate mob of delusional haters.
