Cry-Baby: David Fisher
The incident: David Fisher just can’t stop reading this blog in between writing hagiographic articles about Kim Dotcon, and notices a post he doesn’t agree with.
The appropriate response: A quick tsk-tsk over your Kopi Luwak espresso at the Dotcom Mansion before getting into the latest draft article about Kim that needs filing that afternoon to Kim for approval.
The actual response: He nuts off on Twitter drawing even more attention to the post…having never heard of the Streisand Effect.
This vile post bit.ly/TICbcz is a good reason to avoid @whaleoil and his blog.

Which then results in other internet luminaries likewise getting all cry-baby on us:
@fish_nzh Congrats on yr trifecta,@whaleoil: petty, pointless *and* mean-spirited. — Russell Brown (@publicaddress) January 3, 2013
Thus ensuring a Twitter battle:
@fish_nzh @whaleoil you really do have indigestion don’t you?Give the fatty German sausage a break for a few days. That’ll fix it. — Barnsley Bill (@barnsleybill) January 3, 2013
Where David Fisher gets to abuse everyone who disagrees with him and finally pulls out the dreaded “sock puppet” epithet.
@barnsleybill @whaleoil Sock puppet with a *sausage* joke. Tragic.

Oh man we are soooo burned by that.
David, I know you are new to this social media bag but I don’t think your editor will be appreciating your ranting all with the tag NZH attached to your nick.
Well done @fish_nzh for generating so much traffic to a @whaleoil post which lifts story wholesale with little credit, including photo.
