: It's just a guy expressing his views. Big deal.

Fine, you don't have to accept it I think its unfair too, but it is a common practice and almost every media website does it. you shooing it off isn't going to make it go away.

: basically what you're saying here is "if you work in the industry,
: you're not allowed to have public opinions about anything in the
: industry." That seems... unfair.

Basically. Your opinion is watched allot more then a common person would, Hell Adam Orth's "Halo Suxx!!" comments came back to bite him on the butt during his whole XBO scandal.

It is unfair but it is a normal.
