You want it rude?  You really want to whine about how hard it is to be a music journalist?  Give me a fucking break.  What's the worst thing that's ever happened to you, a cramp in your shift pinky?  I don't hear of many music journalists getting trapped in mines or fired cause the CEO just needs to make profit that quarter and can't possibly take a pay cut.  STFU and grow a pair.  If you don't want dissent about your writings, share them with your friends and family who love and care about your fragile ego.  Otherwise, take your licks.  It's all part of the internet culture.  

Understand that my comments are nothing I wouldn't say to any critic.  I find the whole industry to be essentially repulsive, so it's nothing personal.  Now I'm going to back to my troll cave and do my menial job.

No cowards here, cupcake.
