Comment on Michael Arrington: Editorial Independenceparent

Comments

ha!

Arrington: I'm going to start raising a fund, with the Crunch name and telling investors they'll get privileged access to TechCrunch and covered companies.

Ariana: Pffth! GTFO!

Arrington: Editorial independence! Help, help, I'm being repressed!

This from the guy who's started thumbing his nose at AOL the day they bought his company. Even started a feud with Engadget accusing them of some underhanded BS that ended when AOL had Arrington's back and most of the Engadget team quit.

AOL keeps outdoing itself in its search for the most annoying new media personalities to bless with a cashout and one-way trip to oblivion (Calacanis, Huffington, Harrington). And they keep laughing all the way to the bank.
