Yeah, Leo is the Mr. Rogers of Tech shows. This was very interesting to see.
In a way I'm kinda glad he did it. Shows that rudeness and trolling (his words) behavior isn't acceptable in all medium. Something the internet seems to encourage more often then discourage. Also only Leo could say, "We're going to reruns." in the middle of a show and get away with it. Maybe he's "Mom's" from Futurama and people in the know, know not to F* with him off stage but somehow I don't think this is true. Of course it's tv/internet vcast so do we really know what people are like away from the camera? That's why TMZ is on, right? Someone should leak this to them and see if they'll pick it up. 8^) Then we'll get all the dirt. Yeah, yeah... that's right... all the dirt. -Sterling On Jun 7, 7:59 am, "Edward Crosby" <[email protected]> wrote: > For those of you that do not know, Leo Laporte is a tech journalist who > became famous during the wonderful years of Techtv that aired the shows > The Screen Savers and Call For Help that he hosted.
