PD’s Ted Diadiun calls bloggers “a bunch of pipsqueaks”, will not refer to Jeff Jarvis by name

But the PD keeps throwing their hissyfits in webchats, which today included (a) the second time in a row a major PD writer explicitly refused to answer a question from me, which today was the only question they received on the chat, and (b) Ted Diadiun calling bloggers “a bunch of pipsqueaks”, and referring to Jeff Jarvis as “some blogger”, literally refusing to name him.
If your 8 year old behaved like this, you’d ground the little bastard for a week.
