I guess I am a member of the "...geriatric readership which actually believe that Consumer Reports' opinions on electronic products and God-knows-what-else are worth more than a bucket of warm spit."

My lawnmower, dishwasher, roofing shingles and other items were purchased after consideration of Consumer Reports' recommendations. So far, so good. Not saying they haven't blown a few calls over the years, but by and large I have found them to be a valuable resource.

CR definitely doesn't have all their ducks in a row on the IPhone issue, but the folks at MacDailyNews have gone over the edge of decency in their response.

Insulting the people at Consumer Reports ("...transparent hit whores...") and their readers ( "Again, anyone under the age of 115 who uses a Consumer Reports recommendation for any electronic device needs to seek immediate mental health counseling.") is just school-yard name-calling. They have a strong case with the facts. No need to degenerate into a hate filled rant.
