TechCrunch UK editor booted amid messy ‘Le Web 3′ conference related blog-war

PeterR @ 12:13 am

‘Unethical behaviour’ of Sam Smethi, now ex-editor of TechCrunch UK & Ireland is responsible for the blog going on hold after unfavourably reviewing Le Web 3 conference in Paris, whereupon:

Conference organizer Loic Le Meur, however, took offense at the post and left a regrettable comment, calling Sam an “asshole”.

It’s all in the ‘Crunchnotes‘.

Pointed out by a thrilled Rob. The review of his gleaming new baby, panthius.com shall remain on the front page until the ‘hold’ is lifted. Congrats!
