There's a pretty big difference between being 'GoDaddy-ish' and releasing press releases about funding rounds. GoDaddy style behaviour is A Bad Thing in and of itself. The only thing that's bad about funding round press releases is that they're boring. But since people print them and are apparently interested in reading them... well, OK. Press releases about funding don't reveal a lack of moral fibre or dubious ethics. They just reveal that the organisation is savvy enough to do something that works (een if it is pointless).
