Startrek.com Shutting Down

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the could-have-offered-it-to-fandom dept.

Curlsman writes to let us know that the fan site startrek.com, operated for 13 years by CBS, is being shut down and its staff laid off. Is this site worth a write-in campaign? From the (perhaps final) post: "Goodbye from the STARTREK.COM Team. Sadly, we must report that CBS Interactive organization is being restructured, and the production team that brings you the STARTREK.COM site has been eliminated. Effective immediately. We don't know the ultimate fate of this site, which has served millions of Star Trek fans for the last thirteen years. If you have comments, please send them to editor @ startrek.com — we hope someone at CBS will read them."

    that's what you get when you deal with corporate America.
    the hell with the fans .. they can suck a lemon ..
    the hell with employees .. they can also suck a lemon ..
    all they care about is their bottom line .

    America : A government of the people , by the corporations
                        for the corporations ! ..
