No one knows much of anything. Certainly no one at TechCrunch. This site is about to change forever and we\u2019re in the total fucking dark. I\u2019ve been able to piece together little bits of information here and there, and it\u2019s not looking good. Hence, this post.<\/p>\n<p>By now, if you read TechCrunch, you likely know about the nuclear situation that has exploded over the past several days. Mike unveiled an investing entity known as the \u201cCrunchFund\u201d with full AOL support \u2014 so much support, mind you, that they\u2019re the largest backers of the fund \u2014 only to have his legs kicked out from under him due to what can only be described as <a href=\"http:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2011\/09\/02\/crunchfund\/\">nonsensical political infighting and really poor communication<\/a>. To make matters worse, some Journalists (with a big \u201cJ\u201d and even bigger senses of entitlement) have proceeded to pile on, despite having no real knowledge \u2014 <a href=\"http:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2011\/09\/05\/the-new-york-times-david-carr-is-wrong-about-techcrunch-but-its-not-his-fault\/\">at all<\/a> \u2014 of the way TechCrunch actually works. And now here we are.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this evening, <a href=\"http:\/\/parislemon.com\/post\/9859907607\/its-not-a-mirror-its-a-crystal-ball\">I wrote a post on my personal blog<\/a> attempting to explain to those outside our company how TechCrunch actually works from an editorial perspective. The notion that Mike, or anyone else, investing in a company would dictate some sort of giant conflicted agenda is laughable. Literally. If Mike tried to get me to write some unreasonable post about a company he had invested in, I would laugh at him. But he would never do that. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/loic\/status\/110938911018205184\">Ask Loic Le Meur<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/kevinrose\/status\/110834216626962432\">Ask Kevin Rose<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/shervin\/status\/110941015749300224\">Ask Shervin Pishevar<\/a>. <a href=\"http:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2011\/07\/29\/airbnb-victim-speaks-again-homeless-scared-and-angry\/\">Ask Airbnb<\/a>. Ask countless others. He didn\u2019t get to where he is by being an idiot. He has gotten to where he is by being honest with his readers. Even if everyone doesn\u2019t always agree with him, he has been honest. And he\u2019s brought forth information that no one else has, even when it\u2019s probably not in his best interest to do so.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Via Techcruch TechCrunch is on the\u00a0precipice.
