He selected a funny piece of the interview: (During the 2004 IPO process), between the time we filed and the time we went public, the press was among the most unpleasant I have ever experienced. We (Google management) were idiots, we were useless I thought God.It is a terrible feeling of being on the other side of that (press coverage). So we looked at (Googles Web site) traffic and revenue and they were exploding We had a very, very strong quarter right after the worst possible press about the idiots running the company. I dont know what that tells you. Schmidt then paused and begged the reporters to create a new Google press frenzy: So, yes we are IDIOTS and please WRITE THAT DOWN.

Having the ability to see the progress on all fronts his company continues to make, and seeing the way it is portrayed in the press, has to be frustrating. In the end, "the truth will out". Most holders of trhe stock know this, and are able to look beyond the "static" from those looking in through the tinted glass of press coverage. If those guys are "idiots" count me in. Judging from the exodus from "softieville", those "idiots" have created the atmosphere needed for true thnkers to flourish and create value for the shareholders of Google.
