So Mike Arrington’s the subject of one of those breathless trend-watch WSJ articles that says “Two years ago, Mr. Arrington was a surf bum in southern California.”
The article is a hoot. Never mind that Mike is a lawyer, worked with Keith Teare, co-founded edgeio–the guy’s really a slacker who stumbled into success –sez these two bozos.
LOL, what idiots these reporters must be.
Isn’t this more proof old media has just lost its way?
Somehow, the reporters ponder, Mike Arrington has the magic juice that gets even the littlest starft-ups funded (this story reads like the oh-wow freshman piece for two high school newspaper editors hitting the big leagues) and has this amazed how did he make this happen? tone.
Given all the bloggers vs,. journalists hoopla around Mike recently, this silly piece scores one for the bloggers in my book.
