I think you might be reading negativity into it. The title itself is pretty neutral. I wrote for a newspaper at 13 , and was paid for programming at 15.

Sure, if you look at it strictly as a logical proposition, but is "TechCrunch has Belgians writing stories for them" just the way you'd expect a Belgian would put it?
Even you put it in terms of your achievement, not the newspaper's hiring policy, which is the way most would expect it to be written.

Interesting non-heavy story, but I don't really think this was "written" by a 13-year old. Such as "handy belt clip screwed on to the back" or the use of the word "plethora". Really?
