We all know Ted Murphy and Pay Per Post did not receive positive coverage by TechCrunch. But this video that you are about to watch captured what can be called….. well judge for yourself what it should be called:
Ted really deserves respect credit for behaving like a gentleman and making light of this unkind arrogant remark.
Among so much garbage out there, Pay Per Post is a good thing. Just think about how many stay at home moms actually have an opportunity to make some money. Is that such an evil thing?
On the other hand I believe that covering garbage on his blog is far more evil than offering an opportunity to a stay at home mom. But one should not be surprised- the “tech god” covered Pornotube. And that’s my word for today.
Yeah.. that was really rude of Arrington! I don't think PayPerPost is evil at all. Most bloggers do not feel compelled to write totally-positive reviews. And even in the blogger code of ethics, PPP says, “PayPerPost itself has no restrictions on how you express your genuine thoughts on an advertiser's product or service” contrary to Arrington saying “they're required to be positive.”
Erica,
Thanks for stopping by! Long time since you visited here. 🙂
I completely agree with you on Pay Per Post. There was one huge argument over the disclosure which is not longer valid. But even if an advertiser requires a positive review, so what? It's done every day on TV and other media.

Pay Per Post was never my cup of tea. Sorry for being so damn arrogant/rude or w.e but Pay Per Post doesnt really go on too well with the real bloggers..

Tom,
Thanks for stopping by. I did not realize there are “real” and “not real” bloggers. I thought there is those who belong to A-List and those who don't. 🙂
On a serious note, I would really like to hear your definition of a “real blogger”. Could you do me a favor?
