Therapy Session

Mike is still making the mistake of trying to get people to feel sorry for him. Instead, he just ends up amplifying the perception that he is insecure about whether the criticism about his conflicts and thin skin are completely invalid.

Arrington admitted in the session that his relationships have an influence on the content of the reviews he posts in his blogs. I commend him on his transparency but he really needs to stop attacking the integrity of the MSM when he does not appreciate or live by their standards to begin with.

As long as for each post Mike and his bullpen discloses the relationships that could +potentionally+ influence a review or commentary, I would think that the remaining trolls could be effectively ignored.
