Leo Laporte to Mike Arrington of TechCrunch: "Screw You!"

“Screw you! … Mike, you are such a troll … I’ve had it with Mike Arrington, he’s the most trollish person I’ve ever worked with.”

Leo Laporte from Gilmore Gang goes off on Mike Arrington of TechCrunch after Leo got angry at him for implying that his opinion of the Pre was biased by the fact he got a free review unit.

Leo Laporte has since apologized for the incident saying this:

Thanks for the post, Mike. Apology accepted. Now that I know what was going on in your mind, I apologize to you.

There seems to be something about the Gillmor Gang that just engenders over the top passion. I’m embarrassed by my overreaction. Peace.

If you’re in the mood for a good flame war, this Bud’s for you…
