Too biting or just right? ... re Jared's performance in "Dallas Buyers Club"

Is this too biting for a comment on the DallasBuyersClub article Jared asked us to comment on?

Jared Leto's 'Dallas Buyers Club' Role Prompted Him To Lose '30 Or 40 Pounds'

......

Jared Leto and 30 Seconds to Mars win Best Rock Video at the VMA's and HuffPost writes an article on his hair. In his acting persona, Jared gives what many are calling an Oscar winning performance as a transgendered woman in "Dallas Buyers Club" and HuffPost focuses on his weight loss. Jared and the band give a beautiful interview after the VMA's and HuffPost deliberately reinterprets Jared's frustration at the "award on the red carpet" slight as some sort of rant.

It's a shame you only see the superficial. In both his careers, Jared Leto is an intelligent, thoughtful, talented individual. I'm thrilled that Dallas Buyers Club and Jared's work in it are getting the recognition they deserve ... from the rest of the press. I thought this was an online newspaper. It's a shame it's looking more and more like a tabloid.

If you missed the past 2 articles:

I'll post the "good" reviews momentarily. I decided I prefer to have them in their own pristine post unsullied by this mess.

Editing to add: Got three thumbs up from Twitter, so I posted it. Look here if you wish to see my comments. All on Mars or Jared, strangely enough.
