IT journalist Ian Betteridge
notes
that most bloggers are backing Scoble. I'm obviously in a minority, but
Betteridge makes some different points about why he doesn't entirely
buy Scoble's line.
Robert Scoble has also commented on Betteridge's blog and goes as far
as naming a "source" of the email. I don't know if the person named was
the source and really do hope that Robert checked with him first to see
if he could name him publicly.
Whatever the truth of the matter I think Robert Scoble needs to think
more carefully about his tone. One of the reasons I am more likely to
believe The Register is that Robert's angry, belligerent tone in both
his blog posts and comments on other blogs, make me think that he has
something to hide.
