    So, I recently got a subscription to PC Mag ( Zinio credit!) and im noticing that they completely ignore Blackberry in every article comparing OS's and phones.

    If they do mention Blackberry, its usually negative and worded in a "shaking my head" tone lol

    In this month's issue, they're comparing smartphones and once again Blackberry get no love.

    What gives?

    Well in the world of Rock n Roll and entertainment, bad press is better than no press at all. Rims not going away too soon! Bring on the haters, they will all have to eat crow later. Or maybe worse! Haha!

    The media is biased against Blackberry. I wish they could raise enough capital to take it private like Cox Communications did to get the investors out of the mix. The shareholders are the ones ruining some companies.

    PC Mag has always been biased toward a chosen few for as long as I can remember, even before the mobile 'wars'. Quite a few publications share that same affliction toward RIM though, both techie and financial. No matter what RIM does, it's scoffed at, criticized, ridiculed, and always just plain wrong. Forbes is one of the worst. Really annoying. I'm not expecting everybody to kiss RIM's feet; but for God's sake, how about some fair, factual, and maybe even informative writing without the opinionated slants. We can get all the idiocy we need from Geller.

    Most publications are brutal towards the Blackberry. I don't know why, but it is what it is. Like someone said, there's no such thing as bad publicity. RIM will make a come back. They've got plenty of supporters and unlike most companies, they're still making profit and are not in debt. So in my book, PC Mag became irrelevant since 2005. Just saying.
