People who have worked closely with him have complained about his demeanor to me.

I excused his behaviour, on the fact that Julius like many others was entering some financially challenging times. There was a series of shows he covered without sponsors. I could only imagine his fear when he saw someone else enter a market he had covered alone for all these years. His friends began to muscle the people who asked us to cover the shows. What his friends didnt know, was they were in fact old friends with the people they began to harass. The confusion was between the real names and monikers used in adult.

Here is the irony in all of it. We were not there to cut into his audience and advertisers, and even after bad things happened, I still went out of my way to reassure him that we are not entering his market. I did ask him to back off, or else I would become a competitor. Every show we crossed paths, I would say hello to him, and shake his hand, including YnotSummit.

There is so much more I could reveal, but I have committed myself to not disclose more than I have already, and to not bring heat on those that confided in me.
