On the heels of us here at WP&P reporting that one 'journalist' at Wrestlinginc stole his story from PWInsider's Elite (paid subscription) section, (that story can be seen here at https://wrestlingpastandpresent.blogspot.com/2025/09/another-wrestlinginc-journalist.html ) here comes Daisy Ruth, someone who was busted BEFORE for doing this VERY SAME THING.
You would think that after seeing one of her fellow 'journalists' at Wrestlinginc get caught doing this, the last thing she would do... is do the very same thing that was reported earlier today.
Needless to say... They're not very smart over there at Wrestlinginc.
So since we busted a guy named Julien for doing this earlier today, we're going to go ahead and out Daisy again since she insisted on stealing a story from a site where one has to pay a subscription fee, to be part of, and see stories like the one she has blatantly stole, and then blatantly showed/admitted WHERE, she stole it from.
Nothing like stealing a story and then admit you stole it.. "I stole it and look, here's where I stole it from". (shakes head) Translates to mean, she like Julien in the story we reported earlier today, just don't have what it takes to get their own stories, but yet want to be considered 'credible' journalists/writers when they swipe someone else's article and simply put their name to it.
Worse yet is Wrestlinginc, and the owners of Wrestlinginc Static Media, actually paid Daisy for this stolen story.. What does that say about them?
So let's go through Daisy's stealing like we did with Julien's theft earlier today, shall we? (smiles)
Here's the screen grab you saw above of the story Daisy stole.
Read through Daisy's 'story' and look where she got her 'exclusive' from.
GGGEEE, where have seen this before? Click that link in blue where it says "According to PWInsider Elite" and guess, just guess, where that takes you. It takes you... right.... Here.
That very same page where Julien's link in our story earlier today takes you. Where you have to pay to be a member of this section of PWInsider.
So again we click that "Become an Elite member" link and lookie lookie..
The VERY SAME sign up page with the very same subscription fees and the VERY SAME "he information contained on the Elite site is our exclusive, proprietary information and content and it not allowed to be reposted or rewritten on other websites, message boards or social media accounts. Any violation of these terms will result in your account being suspended and any money you have paid to us will be forfeited" stated right there in the terms of service..
Guess what Daisy, Wrestlinginc and Static Media, websites would include? Wrestlinginc, DUH!
Daisy as stated, has been caught doing this before, and obviously since she now has been caught doing this again, the powers that be at Wrestlinginc and Static Media obviously think it's okay for their 'writers' to steal their stories from other have to pay to see sites. hey're obviously paying these 'writers' for these stories so... Again, what kind of message does that send on behalf of Wrestlinginc and Static Media?
Here is where Daisy was caught not once, but TWICE in one month doing this... No youcan't make this kind of stupidity up. Here's the story right here. https://wrestlingpastandpresent.blogspot.com/2025/03/wrestlinginc-journalist-who-was-busted.html
And as you can see with this story we're writing, she was paid before by Wrestlinginc/Static Media for those stories she was caught stealing, just as she was paid for this current one she stole. "stole a story? Give it here to us at Static Media and we'll gladly pay you and post that stolen story."
They can't say that this isn't what they do because as you can see, that's exactly, what they have done. Makes you go, HHHHHMMMM.
Here's another story where not one, not two, but THREE other 'columnists' for Wrestlinginc were caught doing this very same thing. https://wrestlingpastandpresent.blogspot.com/2025/02/yet-another-journalist-at-wrestlinginc.html
And here's the story where three columnists, Daisy Ruth is one of them were asked to comment on being caught stealing stories from PWInsider's Elite Section. https://wrestlingpastandpresent.blogspot.com/2025/02/what-happens-when-three-wrestlinginc.html
When Daisy was asked to comment on getting caught stealing? This.. Was her response to being caught.
No denials, no comments, just quickly run and hide behind a block. HHMM, have something to hide do you Daisy?
You think the powers that be at Wrestlinginc and Static media will see this, and see just what kind of people they have on their 'payroll'?
OOOHH LOOK, here's an older story we did where BOTH Julien AND Daisy were caught stealing stories from paid sites. https://wrestlingpastandpresent.blogspot.com/2025/01/wrestlinginc-journalists-caught.html
This stuff just keeps coming up and coming up and...Coming up. Why? because Wrestlinginc and Static Media apparently, contrary to their own Editorial Policies allow their staff writers, or maybe 'encourage' (?) their writers to steal stuff from elsewhere and they'll happily pay them and post those stories stolen from somewhere else. Ypou can see those Editorial policies right here. https://www.wrestlinginc.com/policies/
Sadly... Wrestlinginc apparently doesn't even enforce their own editorial policies, and they can't say they do when this story here, along with the one we here at Wrestling Past And Present did this morning? Shows, they don't.
"Have a paid subscription to PWInsider Elite? Great, you can have a job with us, and this is how much we'll pay you." seems to be the straight up message over at Static Media and Wrestlinginc.
Dave Scherer and Mike Johnson who own and run PWInsider have been informed of this, as they were on the story we did earlier today.
Hey staff 'writers' (cough cough) at Wrestlinginc, here's a novel idea, why not try and get YOUR OWN STORIES instead of stealing them. Think you can do that?
My guess is, probably not and it won't be long until we do another story like this again .

Daisy getting outted again shows that Wrestlinginc really doesn't care where or how their so called 'columnists' get their stories. Daisy's credibility as a quote unquote 'journalist' is shit because she has to steal the stories instead of doing the actual work and getting her own content. Sadly Wrestlinginc won 't do anything except keep paying her to steal stories from pay to play sites.
No comment from Daisy about this? I mean if I were her or Wrestlinginc I'd be wanting to say something about this.
Nope, nothing... Which doesn't surprise me as it's more of no answer shows that's the answer, and they really don't or don't want to address and do anything about this.
Sadly you seem to be correct.
Choosing to spend your time and your limited literacy to drum up a weird harassment campaign on my colleagues says all that needs to be said about you. You don't understand journalism, you don't understand much at all. It must really irk you to see women succeed in the field you wished you could; just a shame they're more talented and genuinely good people than you will ever be. Your best work came in a Nissan Sentra. Not this forum.
Getting caught stealing from a payroll site isn't harassment, it's busting out the lack of true journalistic credibility your colleagues have. You're the last one to be saying anything since you're one of the ones who steals stories too. Good people don't have to steal their content from paywall sites like your 'colleagues' have been doing. Nice try though.
Max you've been caught stealing too so how does stealing from a pay site qualify as journalism? I have a degree in journalism and nowhere was I taught that gong to a site, pay for a subscription or membership and then swipe content to use on a site I work for is considered great journalism. If you and your colleagues are such great journalists then why do you keep getting caught stealing articles from paywall sites?
Hey Max, make sure you try and use that argument when the better Business Bureau contacts your employers Wrestlinginc and Static Media, I bet you won't tell the Better Business Bureau that they don't understand journalism.
Daisy Ruth is now using "The Wrestling Observer Newsletter" as her 'source' for her scoops. Also, her tweets on Twitter/X are now "protected", so you can't openly see them. What does she suddenly have to hide I wonder.
Max, we're still waiting for you to explain to us on how we mere mortals don't understand journalism. What's taking you so long?
And Max suddenly has no answer, imagine that.
Hide the fact she was caught stealing from a paywall site again? Hide the fact that the Better Business Bureau has accepted the complaints lodged against Wrestlinginc and Static media (who owns Wrestlinginc) and will be going forward looking into the complaints? The very complaints that come from the fact she was caught stealing content from that paywall site over and over and Wrestlinginc, knowing this, posted that stolen content anyway?
Plenty to hide behind, so obvious a blind man can see it.
What's taking him so long is the fact his defense is an epic fail in every way possible.
