This was a very deliberate top-down decision. They decided tech was a major power center that needed scrutiny and needed to be taken down a peg, and this style of coverage became very widespread and prominent in the industry. — PolitiTweet.org

Instead of covering the industry with a business press lens or a consumer lens they started covering it with a very tough investigative lens — highly oppositional at all times and occasionally unfair. Almost never curious about technology or in awe of progress and potential. — PolitiTweet.org

Tech executives and investors mostly did not like this change, for understandable reasons. And I mostly agree with them on the merits. They also just tend to overstate the role of the tech beat within the larger zone of "the media" and started being very angry at "the media." — PolitiTweet.org
