I'm in the "t-shirt was a joke" camp, but this does cause me to wonder: is this alleged screenshot also a joke?
I mean, in the context of the t-shirt thing, just how credible can Arrington's screenshot claim be, anyway?
- bmelton 17y agoWhat strikes me as worrisome is that, at least by the tone of the article, there is no possible doubt in Arrington's mind that the screenshot exists, and that it is EXACTLY what was claimed to him, and he hasn't even seen it. I'm sure it's a somewhat thin argument, but I personally would think they'd start reserving their over-committal in the wake of the Facebook-picture-fax thing. I mean, they bought that hook, line and sinker, and that was a hoax they at least SAW.

This is a far better critique of TechCrunch than the "quid pro quo" angle.
- dfranke 17y agoYes, it is indeed a better critique. That should have occurred to me.
