It's extremely common to encounter people who try to make themselves seem braver and wiser than the average outdoor Joe, by trucking in all sorts of hype and self promotion.

People of this sort are sometimes used by journalists for an easy story, because they so willingly strike the bargain: free hype on command, in exchange for the attention.
