And when I do pay attention and practice those virutes and others the quality of my contribution is better for it, as am I and my relations with other on and off-line generally.

So it would seem that they respect you or at least your media work, even if they don't always like you. As Eleanor Roosvelt once wrote or said (I'm uncertain which): "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent". And like most dictums (rules of thumb) the oppostite applies too...
