Dinner With the Banned CES Blogger's Editor

I don't need to pile on about Richard Blakeley, the Gizmodo blogger now banned from CES for his stunts on the show floor. It was obviously ridiculous behavior that I might've expected from some of my less-refined frat brothers after a drinking binge when we were all 19 -- not a professional blogger.

What's weird is that on the last night of CES, I attended a dinner with a bunch of journalists, including Blakeley's editor, Brian Lam -- the guy who bragged about Blakeley's behavior on Gizmodo. Lam never mentioned a word about what was going on. Guess he didn't think it was any big deal. How strange.
