The Pirate Bay, Featured in Vanity Fair

koregaonpark writes "Via the TorrentFreak site, an article in the latest issue of Vanity Fair about BitTorrent, movie piracy and The Pirate Bay. The Vanity Fair piece is lengthy, and covers the MPAA's struggle to stamp out piracy, Hollywood's increasing losses, and how the 'heartfelt testimony of Ben Affleck, a man who was paid $12.5 million to star in Gigli,' didn't help one bit. 'Pirates of the Multiplex' covers the saga of Pirate Bay in a very high-level, mass-market fashion. Did you ever think you'd be reading about TPB in Vanity Fair?"

    'heartfelt testimony of Ben Affleck, a man who was paid $12.5 million to star in Gigli,'


    Depending on the context:
    heartfelt testimony of Ben Affleck, a man who was paid close to nothing to star in Good Will Hunting,

    For example, let us take someone from somehow opposite spectrum.

    blablahblah of Garofalo, who starred (or blah blah blah) in Dogma or
    blablahblah of Garofalo, who starred (or blah blah blah) in Suspicious

    Give me a break, idioto-journalists.
