It's more just disrespectful and irreverent and outside what a lot of people would agree is acceptable behavior. The reason bloggers take it seriously is that serious bloggers fight an uphill battle to be taken seriously and this slows that all down. Watching the video is embarrassing. Those people spent an absolute ton of money to make their businesses better, and these Gizmodo guys are like the ultra-unhilarious morning FM DJs everywhere.

I think people need to lighten up. I thought the Gizmodo stunt was hilarious, and I bet plenty of people at CES thought so too when they found out about it. I think people need to lighten up.

Clearly, Denton sees himself as the Rupert Murdoch of the Web and is doing his best to drive the quality of his content down, just like the real Murdoch. What's next, wet t-shirt contests?

Kinda makes me lose respect for them. And definitely not sending that link around. I saw Rafe's Tweet that Gizmodo should be denied press credentials next year. Thoughts?

Also to do it during a keynote is completely unprofessionel. The problem is with the amount of traffic they get can Motorola afford to boycott them.
