it exposes the publication to much less liability to say they like somethings (but not everything) than to say they DONT like something.
"eeh, we jsut forgot to mention your pile of shit preamp. sorry. maybe if it wasnt crap it would have sold" could be an acceptable arguement when asked why no mention of a pile of shit bit of gear was made in a magazine.
the sad thing is not what dosnt get slammed and bashed, but what doesnt get the acclaim it deserves.
