Ben Brooks:
The problem is endemic of the industry as a whole. You can say all you want about my opinions — whether I am right or wrong — what you can’t say is that I don’t have one. I will take you disagreeing with me all day long over being a bland yes man.
This is the reason why I never could get into sites like Engaget or Gizmodo, and I too, don’t really read the Verge. Everything is reviewed with kid gloves. There is no conclusion. You get a long-winded set of tech specs.
