How an "entrepreneurial reporter" gets his editors to print his article - be sure to bash an "Apple" product and be plenty insulting to "Apple" fans. Of course

How an "entrepreneurial reporter" gets his editors to print his article - be sure to bash an "Apple" product and be plenty insulting to "Apple" fans.
Of course, there are plenty of Kickstarter products that produced crap, plenty that folded for no reason. But only the "Apple" ones get you a certain article.
Garbage.
- JJColao 14y agoIn blogging there's little editorial oversight, thankfully. Otherwise we wouldn't be able to write anything. Here's how the article came about since you seem to view journalism as some kind of conspiracy: The Touchfire people reached out to me, sent me the Touchfire for review, and I reviewed it. Simple as that. I'm not bashing Apple fans since I clearly am an Apple fan in that I make known that the Touchfire is unworthy of a "beautiful" device - i.e the iPad. (Yes, I had fun with the lede though.) As for some kind of Kickstarter bias, I wrote a very positive review about the Zboard which was a Kickstarter project. I'm all for informed pushback from readers, but that's an awful lot of unfounded speculation.
