I called IHaveAHugeNick a shill when I was hiding his Obsidian developer past and took away "shill" when he became public about it - and now, going back through the responses in this, I realize I was coasting off my poor wordplay with "colossal fatass" (referring to myself) in insulting Nick with fuckery. How derivative.
I don't think I called Infinitron a hack or shill, I had mentioned I didn't think he posted news - he finds news but the way he posts it (like with this piece) adds a spin to things that didn't have it before based on his own perspective, which may be (but not always) incorrect.
His dramatic headlines were what caused some unusual reactions to happen in the past, although they were overall good for me, it wasn't because they were true at all.
I don't mind if you feel you have to embellish or add your opinions to a piece, but at that point, you don't call it news - you call it a community update, an editorial commentary, big ol' pile o' stuff, or something that isn't news. It's not even an insult to him, just a point I'm making.
I'm used to his word framing of his releases by now to the point I feel he should be dubbed Inflamatron, and will lobby incessantly to make it so.
Also, on a serious note - which I brought up already: before he posts here, or worse, decides to go to other forums and posts, he should make absolutely certain he knows what facts he's posting - because aside from the drama, if it's incorrect, it probably won't end well.
