This guy, Al Snow, talks about fans that think they know the wrestling business because they now have some information on wrestling... Due to kayfabe being dead. These fans are contemptuous of the business but still watch... They are a very vocal minority, and the result is that the people who run wrestling now cater to this vocal minority.

I'm not sure I completely agree with the analogy to magats but it's not too far off.
