Well, he's right in that anonymous speech is the refuge of scoundrels and fiends - but wrong in implying that's a bad thing. Anybody speaking truths that can't be said is a scoundrel and fiend to those who would rather pretend and make-believe.
You look at 4chan and your eyeballs will fall out, but they've perhaps done more investigative journalism in the short time they've existed than the whole of the journalism profession across all time.
