I hate leaving snarky ad hominem replies but, yes: Zitron is simply a joke. I am not sure why some journalists and professionals seem to take him seriously. It's odd

The original article is also silly, as you say. It's just two tiresome cranks barking at each other. (Though I think I find Zitron's commentary less tethered to reality than what it's critiquing. Hypomanic exaggeration vs. deeply incurious pedantic skepticism.)
