The sense of superiority coming from the rock crit circle jerk that forms when something like this happens is almost as repellent as the original article. I can understand a few tweets, a few comments. But whole blogs getting set up seems a bit much.

tbh i dunno if my bloodlust has been so inaquately quenched that i think multiple people who didn't even write this thing but lacked the hands-on attention to detail or and/or moral compass to keep it from going online need to lose their jobs. especially since afaik the actual author is just losing some freelancing income, not a full-time job.
