What kind of entertainment website is ebaums world dot com?
eBaum’s World (subtitled “Media for The Masses”) is a website based in Rochester, New York featuring entertainment media such as videos, Flash cartoons and web games. It is controversial for many reasons, primarily due to the fact that much of the content on the website is taken from other sources without permission and rebranded with the eBaum’s World logo. The site was owned by Eric “eBaum” Bauman and co-owned by Bauman’s secretary and father, Neil. They sold the site to ZVUE Corporation in August 2008 for $15 million cash and $2.5 million in stock, with further payouts upon performance. On January 31, 2009, Bauman reported that ZVUE fired him and the rest of the staff and replaced them with a new team. Furthermore, Bauman claimed ZVUE are falsely using his name in connection with new material, making it look as if Bauman is still employed. Sources: http://en.wikipedia.
