The Real Reason Wired Is Bashing Digg: Their Parent Company Owns Reddit

By Daniel Miessler on March 1st, 2007: Tagged as Business | Digg | Reddit

Look, I prefer Reddit to Digg as well, but I don’t like being misled. As we all know, Wired has been bashing Digg lately. No biggie; many of the complaints seems somewhat legitimate.

 But it seems a little strange given the fact that Wired is owned by the same company that just bought Reddit.

This could just be a coincidence, but I doubt it.

  • So admitting bias makes it ok? ;)

    (I'm kidding; I just think it smells a bit like fecal matter...)

    Wired has clearly stated in many of the articles that i've read about digg that they are owned by same parent company as Reddit. Even in the article you link it is stated.
