I guess its time to say something nice about the guy. He actually did contribute a lot to weight lifting and bodybuilding. His magazines always annoyed me, and the way he tried to portray himself as the inventor of everything related to the sport.
Using google isn't an asshat idea where did I say that? Telling someone who asked innocently enough about Nasser dying "ever heard of google" is a troll. That was my issue bro. Trolling someone who asked about a man dying just seemed like an asshat thing to say to someone. But hey I could be wrong eh?
His magazines were dumbed down for the masses, but he wrote some very beautiful, philosophical stuff about weight training and bodybuilding. Hard to believe 2 Jewish boys from Canada contributed so much to promoting the life style. Thank You, and RIP.

I have enough distance where I can be amused at the over the top self promotion he used. But on a serious note, he changed bodybuilding forever. Without Weider, there'd be no Arnold. With no Arnold....who knows?
Do not like the mags (Mens fitness an exception), full of crap products and ads galore but the man was a pioneer and saw a market that needed to be filled. RIP
