Mathew's comments: Hey Mike — chill out, dude

Seth Finkelstein · 3 years ago

It's a "cultural" thing.

Arrington is a lawyer/VC guy. The other three are various types of media/marketing people. What Arrington keeps doing is "trash-talking" in situations where a lawyer/VC would find it appropriate, and the others basically keep saying to him, hey, cool it, not here, that stuff is for the posturing, not the dealmaking.

It's particularly funny hearing Mike talk about agendas and conflict of interests, while he brags that TechCrunch is all about conflict of interests.
