If this doesn't make you feel like you belong to their target audience I don't know what will.

Tempest in a teapot. They were reviewing $50K components and $100K speakers 20 years ago. Hel-loo! 
Nothing that Stereophile does in the future could make them any less viable than they are at present. 

Wolf.....give it a break. Nobody cares about either of our political opinions. 
Unfortunately most of the hi-fi press today do little more than serve as the advertising shop window of what is mainly high end audio.

Any attempt to purport to serious journalism disappeared decades ago. Never ever take the word of an audio journalist seriously.

They’re not bad people per se, but just hacks trying to hold down jobs on behalf of their advertising departments.

Treat them all as only advertising brochures and you can’t go far wrong.
