I used to freelance for hobby magazines, and I would never write a review
for a publication that had to get permission first before it could review a
company's products. You couldn't trust the editorial integrity of the
publication. If it depended on those reviews to attract readers, the editors
would always have to worry about offending the company and losing the
right to review its products. (For an example, consider how reluctant PC
magazines are to slag companies, since they are completely dependent
on them for early access to software and hardware.)
