THE KING IS BAAACK! What happened to the en passant one?
Hi Aun, thanks for your comment. Well, the Chess News Business, like any other business is based on profit. Find the scoop. Publish the scoop, capitalize on the scoop. Like did anyone even notice that the coronavirus had its very own thematic musical overture on CNN? In a minor key, of course. Even news music composers have to make a living. That makes accurate chess news reporting an even tougher niche. So Erik going into space before Bezos and Brandon is an even hotter story.

New: gofundme.com page launched to send Erik into Space!!!
New: gofundme.com page created to bring him back!!!

Breaking!!! CEO Erik of chess.com DENIES allegations of wanting to go to space: "Never liked space, astronomy, physics, or anything else beyond chess, which encompasses my entire world view, full stop." the beleaguered chess.com CEO Erik emphatically exclaimed upon being grilled in the driveway of his Des Moines, Iowa driveway ... in an earlier interview.
It was with great fanfare that Erik, CEO of chess.com announced today that he would "finally vanquish" rival CEOs Jeff Bezos of Amazon, and Richard Branson of Virgin Galactic, by launching first as the CEO of a Major Company, into space. "We have the best and the brightest, because we play chess", Erik stated unequivocally on National News today. "Bezos and Branson, just a couple of rubes that didn't know squat until the Queen's Gambit came out". Although admitting that Branson's 001 Astronaut uniform looked "flashy, in a B-movie kind of way". Erik proclaimed hegemony in Space for chess.com. "We have the best and the brightest' he reiterated in the Press Release.
