I agree. Tom's can go to hell for all I care. AMDMB.com is a great site.

Sorry but the facts suggest the `stupidity` lies elsewhere. Someone, anyone deciding to use their position on a website to perpetrate a malicious attack on another should ensure that their `facts` are double, triple checked before expressing them. This seems to be the tip of a much larger malaise whereby so many people start a website so they must be journalists, and entitled to full journalistic privilege, right? Well, no. Journalists should be professionally qualified and competent in the discipline before they are accepted as such. I see no indication from anything I have seen on most of these warring sites that there are many, if any, qualified journalists or editors at the helm, just enthusiastic wannabes with latent technical competency, but little in the way of editorial skills. It should serve as a stark warning that the mere desire to describe oneself as a journalist is NOT sufficient to actually be regarded as one... Remember, journalistic privilege is exactly that - a privilege, not a right or an entitlement. I dare to suggest that if the accuser in this sorry saga had half an ounce of the editorial skill and professional reputation he THINKS he has, then entry to the event would have been smooth and unruffled. Has he earned the right to be regarded as a journalist? His vitriolic outburst, unsubstantiated claims and allegations suggest that both he and his `editor` if he has one, should consider an alternative career. Politics, maybe?
