Lemme guess, it's already doing better than rival news aggregator SNA, even though the latter has full-time Pat impersonator and cosplay tatsujin at the helm.

The copycat site appears to be a content aggregator and the syntax of the copy in the 7-11 story is wonky AF.

LOL @ Pat! Yeah, he's a former English teacher that decided to call himself a journalist back in 2010 when he hit 40. Be basically goes as Shingetsu News Agency though it's widely reported that there is no legal business entity, so it basically does not exists other than a website and Twitter. I wonder if the unpaid interns he uses to fill his site with content know any of this when they get started?
