You know where I'm at as far as respect for you.
You representing the "reasonable" anti-Wedge position, at least as far as I've grokked it ... yes I agree that a public speaker can undo an entire speech, or career, with one wrong thing to say.
My question is - why would *your* emphasis be on Wedge's gaffe, as opposed to *balancing* the responsibility?  You seem much less annoyed with Big Blog than with Wedge.
.......
And the responsibility doesn't seem 50-50.  They've taken a whale of a lot of shots at him over the years, right?  Many of them were inaccurate and unfair.  Now Wedge swings back once, in anger, and we want to tie him to the flagpole and whip a shoelace across his cheeks?
I'm confident you have a more moderate explanation than the one I've construed.
