Interesting. Neither of the TC intern's emails are quoted. We get to take Arrington's word for it that "Peter responded politely." The CEO's email looks curt

Interesting.

The CEO's email looks curt and impolite, but we have no way of knowing whether that's because the CEO is a jerk, or because there's a mollifying second half to that email that Arrington didn't feel like publishing.
In the past I've basically ignored TC because I thought they were kind of silly. Question for anybody who follows this more closely than I do -- is Tech Crunch making the transition from "waste of time" to "unambiguous parasite" ?
