Wouldn't that be fun?
But not all media reporting is tainted.
The key issue here is that Groklaw, as far as I can
tell, has been reporting objectively about the *case*,
not disguising court claims from one party by restating
them as independently analyzed facts or independently
held opinions. A certain infamous blogger seems quite
likely to have done exactly that. The pattern from the
SCO case repeats itself, but with different mouthpieces.
I'm glad to see the judge getting concerned over this.
Not sure whether the order will reveal anything new,
but his act of issuing it must have caused some concern
in dishonest journalists and on the shady side of the
blogosphere. That, in itself, is good. The shills have
become a little too loud and dominant recently.
When corruption and crime runs deep enough, the
acts lose their subtlety and the actors no longer
take care to hide what they are doing. They get so
used to doing their thing that they think it is
OK to do it, and that is when they get caught.
I think we are seeing the same pattern emerge here,
with "analysts" being a bit too careless with accepting
payment to paint a nice picture of their clients,
and bloggers being increasingly sloppy about
regurgitating material they get from a source that
is paying them.

I think we'll see two filings, one with nobody
on it and the other with Florian Mueller and maybe
others on it.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
