Last week Scoble complained that too few bloggers linked to his Intel video. This week Valleywag reported that Scoble was paid by Intel to create the “professional” video. OMG! Denton explains:

“The hypocrisy of bloggers, so quick to accuse reporters of conflicts of interest and so blind to their own, is nothing new. But it’s truly bizarre that Scoble would, by whining about discrimination against bloggers, draw so much attention to a video feature which could only embarrass him. The moral: fame can go to anyone’s head, even a formerly modest geek’s.”

My hats off to Valleywag for putting this one together! FYI – I am not linking to Scoble on purpose…

Update: turns out Scoble’s company shot two videos, one Intel paid them to shoot and another Scoble posted on his blog.  Scoble was annoyed no one linked to the one he posted on his blog.  Sort of seems like a distinction without a difference, but I am not a journalist so I am sure they have exceptions for the B roll footage…
