I dont like Arrington much myself; especially after the Last.fm debacle. On the other hand had the last.fm story been true the fall out could have been as "big" as this. In that case he made a serious and unacceptable mistake in reporting very dodgy "information received". But he reported it for the right reasons and deserves some respect for that (IMO).
