If Apple wants to deny access to Gizmodo because Gizmodo is a bunch of douchebags, great. Just don't tell us, as Jacobian did, that Apple is defending journalistic ethics by doing so.
Apple is just playing the same tit-for-tat access game they always do. Apple is an admirable company in many ways, but they're not a consistent champion of free speech, a free press, or high journalistic standards. Apple shouldn't be defended on the basis of their press-policing.
