  Arrington hinted in his post that there is more to this story than is being revealed: > I also think VentureBeat should fully disclose any other issues they have that might be affecting their judgement about Y Combinator, but I’ll leave it at that. from: http://uncrunched.com/2012/09/07/turning-the-drama-down-on-y-combinator-v-google-ventures/ http://uncrunched.com/2012/09/07/turning-the-drama-down-on-y... this is starting to become so weird that I believe there must be more to it edit: that post has a HN thread that was just submitted: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4491894 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4491894

  What a contrast a zoom and filter can have on an image... The actual image is him intently/genuinely listening to what I can only suppose is a question from an audience member of some kind. And the Venture Beat cropped version is supposed to make it look like he's coldly calculating someone's demise.

  Oh frig. You should see CNN during election time. The obvious biases last election made my stomach turn.
