>Techcrunch at the end of the day is a Wordpress blog.

Yes, you know, like Whitehouse.gov is just a Wordpress blog at the end of the day. What do they need a president and a country for?

The thing is, the blogging technology doesn't matter. And the fact that it's a blog doesn't matter much either -- as blogs can make from $0 to hundreds of millions of dollars annually.

>Yeah right, biased, manipulative, colored, Apple-sponsored journalism isn't insidious, but paying for traffic is.

Never like TC, but ..."Apple-sponsored"? TC? Of all tech outlets out there?

(That said, I doubt even one blog or news site is indeed "Apple-sponsored", including Daring Fireball. And if the US had proper anti-defamation laws, people would have found that out in a painful way).

Whitehouse.gov runs on Drupal, not Wordpress.
The argument remains though...
