“Michaelâ€™s very successful – and that, in itself, pisses some people off.”

Yeah, it must be that. Frankly, I quit reading TechCrunch many months ago. I didn’t like the subject matter and I felt like too much time was spent hyping the blog.

I also have caught many statements (like yours) that Arrington is a real dick. I can’t say for sure, but he does seem to be in his “interviews”. Plus, he’s quite opinionated himself.

So what am I missing? Isn’t it true that TechCrunch does indeed SUCK the big baloney?

I agree.

ADS ARE EVIL – that crowd is part of the problem :)

I think that last line in your post is what’s it all about.

It’s the same problem that plagues Slashdot… the editors don’t actually read the sources, then make themselves look incompetent.
