Sorry, this part makes no sense...
...especially when you have this part as context...
Are you suggesting the guy basically took what Fern@ndo told him (probably in confidence) and just blew any chance he had of getting any future scoops by releasing the information before Turbine released it to everyone else?
No he "panicked" because he wanted to be the first to publish it before they sent out info to others. The article is poorly written in some lame attempt to look like he is a fanboi given awesome new info. Like i said this is typical Fernando giving an exclusive heads up to one site to foster excitement from the writer.
Here is an example from a tentonhammer interview from last year where he spills the beans on update 6
Question: What’s in store for DDO in the future? Have you guys planned update 6 already? What can players look forward to?
Quote:Answer: Yes, absolutely on the update 6 question. In fact, update 6 is largely done and ready to be released to players. I guess I’ll give you guys first dibs and tell you that it will be coming in August. That update features a whole new adventure pack for level 9 players as well as epic mode, which is level 20 mode so that our capped characters can go in and play and get all their treasure upgraded to epic. The new adventure pack takes place in a new swamp wilderness area. It’s our first wilderness for quite a while and a needed one for level 9, where there currently isn’t one. It includes a Sahuagin city that is located underwater, and eventually the players will get to play the capstone adventure of that adventure pack fully underwater, which is really great. Our artists and content guys did a really great job with it.
here is the full interview
