On June 6th, on the Gillmor Gang, Leo Laporte exploded on Mike Arrington from TechCrunch about his review of the Palm Pre. (supposley, since Leo got his for free, it would effect his review on it)

I thought Arrington might have been joking about questioning Leo's integrity as a product reviewer & tech guy, but he removed all doubt when he asked Leo, "how is it BS?" It's BS because Leo tells you his likes and dislikes about a product, regardless of where it came from. Period.
In this 1:27 minute video I've heard more profanity and outrage from Leo than in 10+ years of watching/listening to him on TV, radio, and the Internet. Trust me, Leo wasn't kidding.
I agree... I've never seen Leo get so upset... I was quite surprised in fact! Leo is a great tech guy & tech reviewer... The gall of Arrington is amazing, in a bad way.
What it boils down to is Mike Arrington was being inuslting to even approach that "as you put it" digging for an answer !
To even insinuate that Leo was being Pro Pre was insulting ! Mike Arrington continued to say you did get it for free though !
Mike Arrington knew dam well what he intended in that line of approach !
Mike Arrington banter What are you going to do about it !" comment and laughing as if he pushing Leo's buttons When in fact he was just being a total out of line asshole !
While I hear Leo smoothed things over with Mike, I really applaud his standing up to Mike's warped manners. Having Enormous wealth doesn't mean you're allowed to be a bully.
Steve must not have felt good at all after Leo's last comment, but they did "make up". Later that day/night Leo and Steve and a 3rd other talked over some ideas, but the show will still exist, but (as of today, in fact as proscribed on the ambermac show) probably with a lot less Mike Arrington.
