Desperate Ken Lay paying search-engines to return links to his "version" of Enron
Noted crooked scumbag Ken Lay, of Enron fame, is so desperate to get his "version" of the breathtaking scam he and his rich buddies pulled off into the public eye before his trial that he's paying search engines 5-12 cents/click to return a link to his bogus account of his wrongdoings when searchers enter "Ken Lay" into the search-box.
Put the search words "Enron scandal" or "Ken Lay," or even this Enron reporter's name, "Mary Flood," into any of the above search engines and one of the first things you will see is www.kenlayinfo.com. If you hit on Lay's Web site from there, then Lay pays between roughly 5 cents and 12 cents.Link (via Battelle)
Update: Clicking this link will bring you to Ken Lay's page while costing him one click's worth of traffic. Click early, click often! (Thanks corps_no_play_nice!)
