No sarcasm intended. I live a very sheltered life and in my circles, bad manners gets people cut off, ignored and relegated; certainly doesn't win new friends. HN is pretty much the only place I don't bother with manners.

Does it win these journalists friends, or followers? I suspect the latter, but in the celebrity industry, they're probably the same thing.
