What Happened to Threadbanger Pt. 2: Formspring.me Question

from formspring.me:
so what happened to meg, corrine and rob. they got fired? you never told us what happened. the new threadbanger is boring.
Sorry – I thought I answered that here: https://chiccreativelife.com/2010/07/do-you-have-any-idea-why-corinne-rob.html

Rob left to work on his own stuff awhile ago. I don’t know the specifics of Meg’s and Corinne’s interactions with the higher-ups at Next New Networks; all I know is that Lee and I got emails saying they would no longer be working for Threadbanger and neither of us needed to blog anymore for the TB blog since we wouldn’t be getting paid for it. That was it; no clarification, no response to my repeated emails and offers to continue to the blog regardless of pay. (Which I never received for all the blog posts I had done up until then anyway.)

Thus I cannot confirm or deny any rumors or conjecture as to what happened to them or why they left – you’d have to ask them directly about that.

What Happened to Threadbanger: Formspring.me Question

from formspring.me:

do you have any idea why corinne, rob, and meg stopped making videos for threadbanger?

I know it was not any of their decisions to leave – the choice was not theirs to make.  (Though Rob as far as I know did decide to leave the show earlier to work on his own projects.) Reading all the comments to their last video (above), I can see how the community is upset and infuriated with them leaving, and with the way it was handled (which also was not a decision any of them had the ability to make either). If people are really upset with the direction Threadbanger is heading, I urge you to write directly to its parent company, Next New Networks, to protest Corinne & Meg’s leaving (and Lee’s and mine too if you feel like it!:-) ) It was such a great, indie-oriented, subversive show, and apparently the owning company feels like taking it in a different direction now.
