Hey everyone:

Not sure if you've heard, but our beloved, EddieN has been blocked by Meetup.com for unknown reasons. Eddie notified me, Kathrina, and Andy independently.

He's not sure, but speculating that it could be due to his criticism of Darold for quoting him on Motherboard.TV without attribution. Darold may have reported him. See Darold's original post below.

He's notified Meetup and they sent him an auto-responder, saying that they would look into it. Will take about 3-days. Andy says that might not include the weekend.

I've Tweeted my opinion. If you can re-Tweet that from @tonyzeoli, maybe we can make a little noise and get him reinstated faster.

@heif @nytm @meetup what's up with blocking @eddien120from Meetup.com?????????? His an invaluable contributor to#nytm listserve.about 20 hours ago via web

Hey guys,

We at Vice Magazine's Motherboard.TV couldn't help but to crowdsource and hash some thoughts together on this - and a few of you guys thoughts found its' way into the piece (can you figure whose? ;-). Check it out and let us know what you think.

Next time we'd love to get a few of you - in "print" - and on the record (we were under strict deadlines to publish, plus we played it safe so as not to betray any confidence/anonymity directly). Have a gander at it. ;-)

Cheers,

d

hahaaaaaa Love it Eddie!

No kidding. I did find that one clip of interest though where they showed him sweating up a storm. It was kinda scary. The article is right on though, he has to be working on his public speaking skills and he is doing a fine job of dancing around questions, but that's only because the reporters let him. I am sure they get a little "love you, will let you get the latest scoop if you are nice to me" deal. 

I would personally like to see you chat it with up him Eddie.

I have to agree with that article -- why did both Lesley Stahl and Diane Sawyer do puff pieces on Zuck, and throw him such softballs? What happened to the 60 Minutes of old, where grown men would sweat like a whore in a nunnery when facing Mike Wallace? Yeah, why didn't Mike Wallace interview Zuck, and why wasn't the first question, "Where do you get off with your disrespect of your user's privacy?"

There's a saying in Nigeria: "God keeps the flies away from the cow that has no tail". That is the reason why I am not the person asking "toddler CEO" the tough questions that we all need the answers to, I guess.

Eddie, GodDAMN!
