Wow. Just wow
Attack of the Blogs - Forbes.com
It’s rare you see such broad generalizations based on so few examples. Daniel Lyons vilifies every blogger in existence as horrible, lying, cheating morons. It makes me wonder what his personal agenda is. The funny thing is, the way his article comes across, he’s guilty of slandering the general blogging community in much the same way he’s accusing us of doing. And he’ll probably use the backlash he get’s from the community as evidence of how right his story is. I think the appropriate term for Mr. Lyons would be ‘bigot’
For the record, I have never attacked anyone online, though I have written a couple of unfavorable review of products in the past. And, when I do a review, I am perfectly willing to post any rebutal sent to me.
By the way, you’ll either need an account on Forbes or use BugMeNot
That is unfare. You are not horrible.
I believe that most of this was triggered by the Lotus community attacking a Radicati report as biased about a year ago. More about that here: http://www.edbrill.com.
Nice to see now that Lyon’s hate-spew is being recognized. Like your blog, btw!
