No, Brian's criticism or speculation about a person does not
constitute Argumentum Ad Hominem. These logical terms have a specific
meaning (described quite well in the Wikipedia article) and it irks me
to see "Ad Hominem" used to mean "insult" or "criticism".

I mean,_linking to_ online TV is considered a copyvio? Next thing you
