Actually, I don't think that's the definition of "hypocritical" at all. You can dislike their stupid reviews and still go to them for news or whatever -- why not diss them? Even you, a fan of the site, recognize their reviews are absolute garbage. Either way, whatever, you read the site and enjoy it, no biggy. Who cares? I don't. I mean, I guess I would highly suggest reading a website that has some integrity and reccomends music that isn't based on payola, but hey, that's just me. They're a CORPORATE website and their whole thing is to make MONEY, from OTHER CORPORATIONS. That's their role. People, for some reason, just happen to give them more credibility and weight than Spin and Rolling Stone, even though it's the same exact thing. Either way, if dull, bland, glossy, safe, predictable music is your thing, then there's plenty of it out there, and Pitchfork is probably going to give it a great score every day. Enjoy!
