    From his response:

    To Steve, I expressed my disappointment that he didn’t go through proper journalistic practices in creating this piece

    I’d be interested to hear what Linus considers to be proper journalistic practice in that case.

    The rest of his response goes some way to addressing a few of the concerns raised, but I feel this is going to turn into another “Trust me Bro” debacle (i.e. he cannot seem to take criticism on the chin, no matter how valid or invalid it may be).

      I get it a tiny bit. Normal journalist practice would be to reach out for comment on a piece like this. Doesn’t and wouldn’t change the accuracy of the content though.

      Okay asking LTT-s CEO (not him btw) would’ve helped, on the other hand nothing he wrote in the comments about “”“”“commiting payment”“”“”“” to Billit made the case look any better.
