i wasn't pissed off, just thought you went a bit OTT. sure, it's PR-laden journalism, but you can't blame the company for that. and they are still giving one away in the competition, as they said.
it's not about picking difficult targets, but picking appropriate ones. ranting about "the media", "sloppy journo cunts" and "marketing wankers" is like shooting fish in a barrel ;) every time cycling gets mentioned in the media someone seems to want to have a crack at the journo's parentage and integrity, which hardly makes us seem like friendly folk who are deserving of positive media attention. i think we can collectively try harder, is all.
nice reply :)
