SPONSORED POSTS

From time to time we whore ourselves out.  If the post is tagged  “Fistful of Dollars,” I have been promised (and hopefully have or will receive) cash money for it, or otherwise allowed it for some third party’s benefit.  If the name is not one of the usual (e.g., Joe Petchonka, Lewis Beck ), it means that the content is not written by our usual contributors either.

COMMENTS/SUBMISSIONS

Messenger Puppet Media welcomes posts, and photography from  the big world of people who are not us. As long as it is not spam, SEO gibberish, stupid or stolen (or otherwise illegal), we’ll probably run it.  All editorial decisions are final.  We do not make substantive changes to submissions, but reserve the right to insert links, internal or otherwise as we see fit.   We make no claim and take no responsibility for third-party content.
