John Reese Vs. Mashable - Consider me in your corner John!

By Ross Goldberg | June 19, 2008

Recently there has been a rash of people bashing internet marketers.

So, who do you think they chose to pick on first?

JOHN REESE

Not only do they bash him wholeheartedly, they throw out a bunch of incorrect, garbage info about him that isn’t true.

John is one of the most honest marketers online.  The information he puts out is generally solid gold and he doesn’t promote spam in any way, shape, or form.

I’ve taken a turn toward being smarter about the stances I take, but I have to handle this with a few words from the old me:

Mashable is full of shit.

While there are marketers out there “teaching” how to spam and get away with it, there will always be people like me, John, Frank, Mike, Rich and numerous others that teach how to do marketing you can be proud of.

Some people need to watch who they pick fights with…

    I agree, Ross. It’s a bit sad to see people waste their time this way though (on both sides), but you can add another checkmark to “Team JR”.. I enjoy him immensely, and have learned a ton from him over the years. As for Mashable, I really just don’t get it.

    Good post! =)
