Maybe it's because you're a lazy, whiny faggot, George.

So the context of the article is he's talking about SHOW fans. That is, the people who were GoT obsessed the first few seasons and now talk shit about it.
I remember a blog post GRRM made sometime after 9/11. He was making fun of the TSA employees (or whatever the pre-TSA employees were at the time) and security theater. He's an old school, non-introspective lefty.
He's also a great author, made a ton of money, has spread it into new ventures, and good for him. I loved his damn books, I read 1-3 many times, and I've read 4-5 once each. I've read a lot of his science fiction as well.
He's not a slave. Yeah, I wish he would either admit he's done or finish the book, but he doesn't owe me a damn thing.
I guess the counterpoint would be, who cares if people are talking smack about a show?
People liked it, it turned to shit. Of course they are gunna shit talk the shit seasons, and nonsensical and unsatisfying finale.
I stopped watching after Season 5. I was (am) a book fan, I enjoyed what I saw of the TV show, but I'm not at all surprised that it went to shit when the series went past where the books were. I could see that train coming a mile away.
I don't really know what people are upset about (not having seen it), but yeah, not surprised.
Fair tak.
IMHO Patrick Rothfuss is the biggest asshole, most pretentious, most abusive to fans author out there today. GRRM, imho, normally comes across as an uberfan.
Best author for his fans--Brandon Sanderson.
