A LEADING blog that was forced out of business after investing all its money in Icelandic banks has been brought back to life by a new injection of government funding.
The money will provide a welcome jumpstart to An Experiment in Digital Media, which had been officially declared insolvent by executive blog director David O’Neill in January this year.
He said: “I invested all of my internet connection money in Icelandic banks after a contact in Herts County Council told me it may be a good idea.
But then the banks went bankrupt and I was left home-page-less for months afterwards.”
The blog was bought by the Department of Spin as a part of their Private Lives Initiative after pledging to spread rumours about the Conservative Party.
David O’Neill said: “I am becoming an expert in shadow cabinet peccadillos and have several in the pipeline already. How do you spell devient?”
It is believed O’Neill’s blog will replace official Government smear-site Red Rag, which was compromised this month after its covert sleaze operations were sabotaged by a vicious, bourgeois counter-revolutionary.
The saboteur had allegedly discovered e-mails from smear king Damien McBride to Red Rag owner Derek Draper, discussing the best untruths to spread about the Tories.
Prime Minister Gordon Brown allegedly said: “Those complete fools. The public aren’t supposed to know the truth. If they start to find out, how are they supposed to have any faith in us at all?”
The ‘covert’ operation became so public and widespread that I actually had to say sorry to the Conservatives. I was so embarrassed.”
David O’Neill said: “The Prime Minister needn’t worry about that now I’m in charge. Secrecy is my middle name.
“Ask EB… shh, you know who.”
