Consider that an event happens which causes the following three
stories.
a) CBS News bulletin! Obama pins medal on Open Source
Hero!
It's a bit vague. Who is that Open Source Hero? So it's
accurate, but not really precise.
b) Fox News bulletin! Michelle
Obama awards Florian Mueller, from Groklaw, the Medal of Wowness (tm) for
services to the Free/Libre Open Source community for her tireless efforts over
the past decade.
Ahh. It's not the President that was giving the
award, it was the 1st Lady. So there's precision in that we now know it was Mrs
Obama and Florian Mueller. But we know it's not accurate since Florian (spit)
is hardly an "Open Source Hero".
c) Groklaw News bulletin!
Michelle Obama awards Pamela Jones, from Groklaw, the Medal of Wowness (tm) for
services to the Free/Libre Open Source community for her tireless efforts over
the past decade. Pamela, looking stunning in her red dress, thanked Mrs Obama
and asked whether she had some time free to transcribe some Comes
documents.
Now, this is the real story. It is accurate and it is
precise. Well, as much as it needs to be in this example[1].

Rumour has it that Mrs Obama did invite PJ to join the family for dinner at the
White House but she had to decline as there were new filings in both SCO v IBM
and Apple v Samsung and it was going to be a long night. [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
