Two Million Dollar Baby Ransom - Exploiting New Media

I just came across a disgusting blog, asking its audience to donate 2 million dollars for living costs, or they will abort their unborn baby. It's outrageous on so many levels, from the "we don't want to give up our careers and university degrees" to the "we'll have to take it to disneyland" and the "adoption is just weird", the bloggers have perfectly designed the most evil, controversial blog they possibly could.

It's obviously a 'joke' - when you go to donate, the fund is called 'My baby's ransom'.

Noone will donate money, and I can garauntee you they don't care about that. I'm willing to bet they are just hoping that the media will pick up on this and bring more and more traffic to the site - increasing their revenue through Google Adsense.

This thing has been up for a day, and the blog already has over 200 comments. Which would indicate thousands and thousands of people have read it. In a day.

I am not providing a link because I don't think they need any more people giving them traffic and if you really want to find it, I'm sure you know how to use Google. If you do check it out, please 'flag' the blog. If you are as disgusted as I am, please go to this link and tell Google what you think of them making money off twomilliondollarbaby.

And here's my suggestion:

I will also link to a Youtube video of Phil DeFranco, who 'broke the story' and was the first commentor on the blog. Some are suspicious he created the blog.
