I don't believe that it is how bad they made themselves look. It's MTV. They hate Stapp and I am pretty sure that the wording they put in their type is their interpretation of the talk they had with Mark. Other media outlets have pretty much said the same as the above article and others have made it seem as if Mark was blaming stapp. It's the media and they will put whatever spin they want on things. Until you hear it from Marks, Scotts, Flips, Myles or Brians mouths, I personally will take things in type with a grain of salt.
Just my opinion.
