An alert reader…uh…alerted me to the uncredited use of one of my pictures on the beachwood reporter web site.

Well, I certainly can’t fault their good taste! Actually, I don’t really mind, and I’m only bringing this up because the Beachwood Reporter looks like a genuine “real” news organization, not just a silly little blog site like…oh…say this ramen blog. In fact, I’d like to believe that it’s because my picture was so professional that they mistook it for an “official” source.

Anyway, here’s my original article with the original picture. And here’s the embarrassingly low-tech shot-it-on-my-dining-table unretouched version, for anyone who’s actually interested:

But, let’s not forget: the fact that a news organization is running what appears to be a regular ramen column…that’s a good thing folks!

  1. “I don’t understand Chinese, but I suspect it doesn’t take 41 Asian logograms to communicate the only English words on the package…”

    hmmm…I suppose if she knew how to read Chinese she’d realize that the label is in Japanese. Good article though. It’s too bad she couldn’t even give you a shoutout.

  2. Haha, I just brought it up as a sorry excuse to write an article! And every time I see things like “Asian logograms” it reminds me of when my college sent out questionaires to all the Asian students with stuff like “Do you speak Asian? y/n” Seriously!
