I think motherfucking could be all one word. Or perhaps hyphenated, like so: mother-fucking.

(I adore your work.)

That's funny, it used to be well disclosed that AppleInsider and MacNN had the same management. Now it seems…less so.

Bravo! But I think that you were too gentle on him.

Although you mentioned that Dilger uses sockpuppets, you didn't point out that he defended that very article in the AppleInsider forums using one of his favourite handles "Andrew Levi Black". Of course he did this without disclosing that he is also Dilger/MacClean (amongst other names). Dude needs to sack up.

Tip o' the Sockpuppet Radar to Ian Betteridge at http://www.technovia.co.uk/ for the "Andrew Levi Black" lead and having called out Dilger's authorial cowardice years ago.

By the way, did you know that the same web server hosts appleinsider.com, roughlydrafted.com and bits of macnn.com? Check out http://www.robtex.com/ip/207.58.150.187.html This is not your typical shared hosting arrangement: the IP block 207.58.150.160 - 207.58.150.191 is assigned to MacNN http://legacytools.dnsstuff.com/tools/whois.ch?...

I think that there is more to this incestuous relationship than meets the eye.

While I do occasionally kill a couple hours reading one of his articles, I usually think of Dilger as the Jim Jones of Apple bloggers. Nobody more gleefully paints Microsoft as both unstoppable tyrannical juggernaut and meat-fisted waterhead while portraying Apple as both an unstoppable benevolent juggernaut and hapless victim. That's some bent Kool Aid.

Googled ” 'daniel eran dilger' mental” and your site came up. Brilliant! Dan = least liked neighbor on the block (to put it kindly). Many suspect that he may actually suffer from some kind of mental, social, or emotional disorder. Perhaps all of the above.
