		<description><![CDATA[Not a week goes by where we don’t get reports of convention drama. Most of the time I really prefer to keep The Convention Fans Blog out of it. After all, we’re a blog for fans of conventions, not a blog for con organizers specifically.

		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s no doubt that Anime Expo is one of the most talked about anime conventions in the United States. In fact, it&#8217;s the nation’s largest anime/manga convention (over 40,000 attendees). It even uses the  Nokia Theatre L.A. Live for many of the main events. This year, Anime Expo is taking place July 1 &#8211; 4, 2010 at the Los Angeles Convention Center, in Los Angeles, California.
Because it&#8217;s so large, Anime Expo commands a pretty impressive guest list from year to year. The Guests of Honor for Anime Expo 2010 ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I reported earlier tonight that over a dozen staffers for BayCon resigned over a disagreement with the owning company. Now we&#8217;ve learned that several staffers over at Anime Expo have now resigned as well.
