It is funny how Leo Laporte is defending Paul Thurrott even though outside the Abomination of a show called &#8220;Windows Weekly&#8221; that should have been called &#8220;Microsoft P.R. Weekly&#8221; Laporte often expressed his disagreement with Thurrott. I theorize that Leo Laporte is suffering from Multiple Personality Disorder. You&#8217;ll never know which Leo Laporte would show up. There are a lot of real Tech Journalists can host &#8220;Windows Weekly&#8221; but Leo Laporte still insists that Paul Thurrott is fair and balanced. Yeah, just like Fox News.<\/p>\n<p>A lot of time Thurrot does make valid points, only to have his credibility destroyed by his adoration with Microsoft. I don&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s a pure adoration or it&#8217;s financially motivated. I don&#8217;t know. This I know that Thurrott has the double standard whenever it comes to Microsoft and other companies.<\/p>\n<p>Message to Leo Laporte, get someone who is not financially motivated by Microsoft to host Windows Weekly.<\/p>\n<p>There I said it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thanks to Chris Grande for exposing what Paul Thurrott really is; a Microsoft Cheerleader.
