The legal expert in the case is Mark Hendrickson, who was Arrington's 2007 pool boy intern, and now legal writer. Read the opening paragraph and tell me whether this is citizen journalism?Also: Arrington doesn't fully disclose that his Techcrunch has a joint venture w Loopt to develop a social network site that is the subject of Earthcomber's patent lawsuit. Now it seems that Earthcomber had added Techcrunch to the lawsuit as well.

She’s taking on the classic role of vice presidential candidates – being the attack dog of the ticket, allowing the man at the top, McCain, to claim his hands are clean. The problem for McCain/Palin is that time is running out and Obama/Biden are leading in nearly all the polls. On top of that, the Democrats have more money to spend. If you want to help the Republican ticket, grab the web domain <a href="http://SarahSixPack.com">SarahSixPack.com</a> and generate some excitement (and cash) for America’s newest GOP star and for her visibly discouraged running mate.
