SXSW Crowd Turns On Reporter (Part 3)
Read up on how SXSW crowd turns on reporter by Jason Lee Miller. He is the WebProNews editor and writer covering business and technology . There is a video towards the end that you should watch as well.
CNet’s Daniel Terdiman did a pretty decent job of capturing the entire holy sh*t! event:
“As a fellow journalist, this was all deeply uncomfortable. It is sort of anathema to write a story that is critical of another journalist. But there’s no question that from the beginning of the interview, Lacy was injecting herself into the story in a way that was far out of balance with the dynamic that should have been in evidence during a discussion between her and the CEO of one of the most talked-about companies in the world.”
Valleywag has a nice clip of Lacy “injecting herself into the story,” if you’d like an example. A solid minute goes by without Zuckerberg saying anything, with him just sipping his water and nodding.
Or you can take Scoble’s word for it, whose thumbs must have been awfully sore from the furious Twitter play-by-play. “I’d estimate 70% to 100% were frustrated, based on my interviews and discussions at other panels,” Scoble, um, tweeted.
