I think you missed the point. As for the ad hominem well, it says more about you.
The point is not in the story itself, but in the way the article was written:

You’re critiquing the journalism? Both BoingBoing and this page are advocacy sites. We’re not mainstream journalism with pretenses or attempts at impartiality, eager to avoid offending advertisers and subscribers. That’s oranges. We’re apples.

That wasn’t an ad hominem, that was just a straight insult you dolt.
Oh goody, answering the substance.
