Did Gene pay you guys to call him the "dean"? hell all he does is cuit and paste from fark linked articles....He isn't even close to luke ford in stature or popularity...If you are going to do a bit on the adult internet that will be read by adult internet pros at least make an effort to get the shit right

I didn't write the article, so I wouldn't know. The extent of my relationship with Xbiz is:
1) I write, as a freelancer, for Xbiz World. I'm paid by the assignment. Promptly, I might add.
2) I am a Moderator of the Xbiz.com forum.
3) I promote Gigacash.
4) I think a whole lot of Giga Bugbee and XBizStephen as people and professionals.
As far as someone paying Xbiz to write specific commentary, I don't know whether to laugh AT you or WITH you -- I guess it depends on whether or not you meant it as a joke.
Again, I agree with you in substance. Articles should be right, to the extent that A) they're about something non-trivial, and B) time allows. Excepting these two circumstances, I think most publications have the ability to get it right, but quality will vary by author and by the quality of sources. Not everyone is an expert on everything, nor should they be.
I'm glad you liked how you were represented, though.
