    A conspiratorial, passive-aggressive fool in the YC comments is not making any claims, just saying that this might be a protection racket.

    Mildly interesting that the author runs a media relations company in SF. On the one hand, I am sympathetic to the general perspective of the original article.

    On the other hand, that the same person is writing “hit pieces” and running a media relations company bears a certain resemblance to protection rackets of yore

      Awfully suspicious that a journalist might actually want to make money once in awhile. Why, all the journalists I know love being destitute all the time, otherwise they wouldn’t be in the business (or lack thereof)!

        Journalists only work for exposure (to absolute madmen who call them fake news and try to find out where they and their children live)
