Blessen Vs Mang Feud

The Blessen Vs Mang Feud is an ongoing feud between California City Show creator Kirti Mang, Lamar Brown, and other allies, and PBLOG Group CEO Bob Blessen and the company's stewardship. The feud started after both Mang and Brown criticized Blessen for stealing the former's intellectual rights and Mang also criticized him for his handling of PBLOG Group, which in response, was met with retaliation by Blessen, which included removing him and brown from CCTV Productions and stripping Mang of all autonomy rights over CCTV Productions and Ramworks Software, as well as permanently terminating his PBLOG account.

Background
On May 8, 2023, both Kirti Mang and Lamar Brown posted on twitter criticizing Bob Blessen for stealing the former's intellectual property that he had held to himself and was allowed to keep, while Mang also criticized his handling of PBLOG Group and his attempts at also suppressing other PBLOG companies by forcing them to surrender their Intellectual properties to PBLOG Group. In response to this, Blessen threatened to fire Mang and permanently ban his PBLOG account and threatened to remove Brown from his role as CCTV Productions' CEO. Blessen also threaten to remove Mang from his position as CEO of Ramworks if he continued to criticize him further.

The next day, Mang urged his fans to help him and Brown retain their position and to ensure that they can still work with PBLOG Group without problems, but Blessen retaliated back by disabling the comments section on the entire CCTV Productions and Ramworks PBLOG sites in order to suppress dissent. Eventually, some significant figures in the CCTV community including most of the Burkins Family and friends, got involved and supported Kirti Mang in keeping the rights to California City Show and to ensure Blessen doesn't remove Brown from CCTV Productions.

Parties Involved
Kirti Mang and Lamar Brown are the main leaders in trying to fight for the former's intellectual rights, which have been taken by PBLOG Group at the behest of Bob Blessen, who wants to use their intellectual property to gain more money while Mang has largely disapproved of this. Mang stated that even when CCTV Productions was sold to ATBW Blog in 2018, Mang still had join ownership of his work and was allowed to take it with him when he decided to leave. Blessen however chose to retain the rights even if Mang ever decided to leave, stating that PBLOG Group deserves to make many profits from every property they can.

Limited supporters in this feud are Keith West, Tommie Del Re, Millie Harper, Ameila Burkins Young, Jim Randolph, Liza Amarillo, Sunny Amarillo, Devin Dawson, Maria Morrison, and Ariel Lopez, who are helping Mang win while having little involvement in the fight for his IP rights.
