too harsh?

Thanks to John De Nardo and SF Signal, I'm part of another awesome Mind Meld: "Who are Your Literary Influences in the Ongoing Conversation of Science Fiction?"

Somehow this slipped out: 'anyone who thinks "media" sf and "serious" sf don't deserve places at the same table simply hasn't read widely enough'.

That's bound to offend someone. But am I right?

(The thought was prompted in part by angriest's post over here.)
