It’s funny how the world works. Hot on the heels of my blog article on Sony Bend Tuesday of last week, our local newspaper, the Bend Bulletin, publishes a story in Saturday’s business section about Sony Bend and the latest version of their Syphon Filter game in development.
“Sony filters out separatist group from Bend designer’s video game” is the article. I don’t really need to comment on the story as the opening sentence covers it: “Sony Computer Entertainment America has pulled a fictitious Quebec terrorist group from the latest in a series of hit video games created by John Garvin….”
Basically, I just thought it was very interesting to see this article show up in the paper less than a week after I had initially blogged about the company.

If you don’t think that local media isn’t scamming local blogs for content, you’re living in a dream world 🙂
Everybody’s guilty of stealing from somebody. Usually Bend.com is the victim, as I know Barney breaks FAR more stories than anybody around.
Heh, I wasn’t aware that I’d broken *any* story, I was just wondering if Sony Bend actually existed 🙂
Good point, though. Maybe I’ll email the Bulletin writer and see if they read my blog.
I’d be curious how many reporters over there read any of our sites. This is a pretty interesting conincidence.
