I used to read The Verge and i don't think I've ever seen many articles or reviews related to Microsoft shown in good light, for example even when most other sites reported Gmail active sync support being dropped as a bad move, The Verge reported that as Microsoft not supporting open standards (which was true) and in the review of the Nokia Lumia 920 the camera was rated the same as an iPad camera with the reasoning that the quality was not needed and cameras like the iPhone's were what customers really wanted
tl;dr they never jump on MS bandwagons

The Lumia and Surface RT reviews which were written by Joshua himself were far more objective and fair, because he was ultimately right about them. Look how many people are returning the Surface now, unsatisfied with their experience with it (more than 40%).

I was asserting that The Verge do not seem to be partial to MS and i think i'm justified in saying that. >The Lumia and Surface RT reviews which were written by Joshua himself were far more objective and fair True but it's just not the norm.
