I agree, both of them seem like a bit of a dick.

Although the blogger doesn't appear to be a journalist, so things like "right to reply" doesn't legally apply, it still seems like like basic good manners to offer that to someone if you write a hit piece on them. The comment section on blogs were traditionally a good tool for that, but the blogger seems to decided to not have one on his site.

Even if we simplify this to "both of them are dicks" it still leaves the sentiment that one of them is a CEO representing a company. Doesn't reflect well on the company, I don't care about the blogger.
