I can't tell if reporters are getting dumber or smarter these days...
I'm a reporter. I've been a TV Journalist for 10 years. The internet is just another tool for getting all sides of a story. It's wise to remember that what you type here can be traced back to you, and cool 'Roo-ers aren't the only ones reading it.
That said, I take vacation time for Bonnaroo. I keep those stories to myself.
Wow, I didn't know that story would be published so fast.
I too talked to this guy, because I go to ACL with my dad. He found me on the Lollapalooza forum. He actually had to ask me for a link to the Bonnaroo forum.
He seemed pretty nice, I'll definitely be picking up the WSJ to read about it.

"After I first read the article I was kind of annoyed. I think I was annoyed because I didn't like hearing Bonnaroo talked about like it was just a bottom line business when to you and I it is much much more. I read it a second time and was less bothered because I realized Bonnaroo is what you make of it. If the festival can offer something to draw a different type of attendee then that’s cool with me. It doesn't change my experience."
Remember, the audience for the WSJ is mostly the business and fiancial community. That's why it had a business slant on the story.
Thanks so much for posting those choice pieces. I'm gonna see if I can find the full article.
