Go figure...... Scary about the press huh..... so much power----and yet so little control..... We trust them to have integrity----and trust waht they put in the papers.... Yet----what may be most important to them is "selling news"..... Famous old time humorist Will Rodgers once said, "I only trust what I read in the papers!" But when you see him say it on film----he has this Chessire Cat grin and a look on his face that REALLY says.... I NEVER trust what I read in the papers.....

| Re: Accuracy In Journalism (?) If you look for the original article on computerworld, the either had a correct headline or fixed. This appears to be be PCWorld's fault and not Eric Lai's. Many IT pros find inappropriate material on employee laptops - dell, laptops, laptop security - Computerworld I would log in to make fun in the article comments, but I am too lazy to register. |
