Couldn't be more wrong. Forbes actually make a point of saying they DON'T endorse blog posts. is he right? no idea, neither has he. nobody knows how this is going to fly at this point. |
You are right it does say "Opinions expressed by Forbes Contributors are their own", but what makes it classed as a blog? I can't see a blog section and the website combines both articles from "staff" and "contributors" all over the site, even on the main page. I think the only difference between staff and contributors are probably one employed full time and the other acts as a freelance agent. Check out the "bloggers" profile.
"My column at Forbes is the culmination of these experiences, and I’ll bring my unique voice, background and skillset to deliver memorable content. I also contribute gaming and technology features to outlets like PCWorld and HotHardware."
Sounds like somebody worth listening to what they say to me regardless if they are classed as a blogger.
To be honest I don't think you would of downplayed the article if it shone Sony in a bad light.
