You my friend are rediculous, as I said it is not my job to prove to you that the Dark Brotherhood wont be a joinable faction in Skyrim it is whoever is making the claim's job to prove that the Dark Brotherhood will be a joinable faction in Skyrim. It is like me saying that there will be a band of super awesome half dragon and half mudcrab supersoldiers called the Crabdom that you can join in Skyrim and asking you to prove me wrong, the burden of proof is on those who make these wild claims so unless those who are so sure that the Dark Brotherhood will be joinable in Skyrim show us some proof I have no reason to believe their claims which at the moment seem based on wishful thinking alone.
Todd has not confirmed one way or the other whether DB will be joinable. You are assuming they will not be, others are assuming they will be. Neither is confirmed yet. Personally I will be extremely surprised if they are not joinable.

Besides it has already been confirmed that there are only 3 guilds in Skyrim so unless the Dark Brotherhood is one of them (which it isnt as the 3 guilds are the Companions, the College of Whispers and the Theives Guild)
Where is it that this was confirmed?
During E3, the only mention I saw where Todd commented on these, he said these are the three "main factions." If they were going to be the only factions in the game, why would they be the "main" factions? In addition to these, and Dark Brotherhood, Todd has previously mentioned a racist Nord faction (which might turn out to be The Companions, given the history of the 500 Companions of Ysgramor, or an entirely different faction).
And considering the game is set against the backdrop of a civil war, I would be pretty surprised if the PC doesn't need to choose sides at some point, to join either a Rebel faction or Loyalist faction.
In any case, Todd's comments in the OXM interview suggest there will be a richer, deeper faction system compared with Oblivion. Looking forward to finding out more when answers to the fan interview questions are posted.
It was confirmed in a recent interview, Todd was asked what was meant by "a richer, deeper faction system when compared with Oblivion" he reply was "By only having 3 factions for the player to join it allowed us at Bethesda to develop a richer and deeper experience for the player within those factions" so it would seem the faction system in Skyrim will be based on quality and not quantity.
That being said the Dark Brotherhood was never mentioned however unless it is one of the 3 factions (which if you listen to an earlier interview it is not) you wont be able to join them.
Would you like those words served up with salt or pepper?
Check out 3:02 of this interview Confirmed that there are at least 4 factions. He mentions there is a hint of the 4th faction in the private 30 min press demo.
This hint was reported by other journalists who saw that demo as being a note found on a dead Orc mentioning the Dark Brotherhood.
It is interesting to note a couple of new things from this interview
1. Armor is limited to Boots, Gauntlets, Helmet, Cuirass+Greaves combined
2. Thieves' Guild is in Riften, College of Winterhold is in Winterhold (big surprise there) and Companions is in Whiterun. So no local thieves guild or companions office in every city.
3. Lots of cooking recipes
