Skate shops host comedy shows?
His treatment of Marisa dal Santo in march 2010 Skateboard Mag Issue where he questioned her about skating on periods; the handling of the then teenaged Corey Duffel with his publishing of that racially fuelled bs in Big Brother.

Why the fuck does this shit get ignored and why does he continue to have a platform as an interviewer (Skaters in Cars etc.)
On other threads related to him/the aforementioned articles, its pretty well established that he’s been a bit of a shady dude, why isn’t that spotlighted on here?

Coming from Chris Nieratko. Lol.
| I found out the other day that a person I knew in a former life hanged himself. His name was Shannon McFadden. He was my age. Many who know about New Jersey skateboarding know the guy used to kill it on a skateboard--even recently I heard he had been killing the KCDC miniramp. But it's safe to say that skateboarding was his most redeeming quality. |
remember when this dude baited a child into saying the n word and then printed it? so edgy!

You don't get baited into saying the n word. If you're saying the n word you probably are totally cool with saying the n word. I do believe Duffel has changed his ways, but there's no one more responsible than himself for saying the n word. Like a person who doesn't say the n word won't be coerced into saying the n word unless they are actually a racist who says the n word.
That being said I bought a bunch of stuff from local shops I love this weekend. I bought a board and a shirt from NJ and I bought a ton of stuff from Kinetic over the phone because I got drunk Saturday and called the shop and harassed some kid working. I have close to no idea any of the things I bought.

Does he skate?
Read what he wrote about a good friend of his that killed himself. When I read this I was surprised someone would write this about a friend—and they were friends.[/i]

Duffell was an idiot, but was probably like 14 when this happened. It's definitely unethical to run something ignorant a child said which can have a long-term damaging impact on their career and future employment when it really provides nothing of value journalistically. To be honest, I'm surprised it went to print because you would think his parents would have to sign off on the interview.Expand QuoteExpand QuoteExpand Quoteremember when this dude baited a child into saying the n word and then printed it? so edgy![close]

Yeah, you have to be willing to say a word for it to be said and most people aren’t willing to say the n word out of nowhere.
Definitely exploited Duffel and could have taken a minute to say “we don’t speak like that about our fellow man, little homie”.
Or at least cut that part out and run more Rosa pics.
