I don't understand. Are there statements you think are factually inaccurate? Or do you just not like the spin?

I reject the burden of proof you are implying. I'm saying this is such a terrible article it's not worth anybody's time to read. An article with the same factual content but less of the author's obvious issues may very well be worth reading, one that isn't an obvious hatchet job. I have no idea what the factual status of the article's various claims are. Indeed, that is my point; as a hatchet job it is basically information free, because hatchet jobs are untrustworthy.

I don't care who is getting the hatchet job. They are never useful, or worth your time. I have no idea how deserved it may be or not, no more at the end of reading it than at the beginning.

I found it tame, even-handed, and surprisingly content rich -- but that's probably because I've read Daring Fireball and TechCrunch.
