Arrington simply cannot resist making this about himself in some minor way. It's like honey to the bears.
As said in the other thread (http://news.ycombinator.org/item?id=3925359) the man has to go, as clear cut as Hurd at HP. Starting of with a breach of ethics like this doesn't bode well for the future or to instill any sense of morale, values or professional ethics in the troops.

I have to congratulate Michael Arrington for being such an accomplished prankster...
Congratulations, Mike.
Arrington is practicing his own form of "gonzo journalism", without the style of Hunter S. Thompson (that is to say, without any style).
I'm surprised anyone even cares.
