Just to give you a little background on LinuxWorld Magazine it's supported by contributors who do not work for the publisher, of which I am one as well as a TriLUG member(mainly a lurker and occasional meeting attendee as I live here in the Triangle) The publisher and the editorial staff has been fighting over carrying anything over Maureen O'Gara for the last six months. They have gradually started to remove her stuff, she no longer was allowed to publish to www.linuxworld.com and they are especially with this last round no longer going to be published anywhere on any of the Sys-Con media sites(this will take about a week to propagate). Unfortunately it took a very ugly incident like this to have them finally cut her off. We also contact the people that have been wronged by her stories like PJ at Groklaw and Larry Rosen and give them the opportunity to publish to counter any inconsistencies in her reporting.

I googled up the article in question. O'Gara is a muck-raking bottom-feeder of a "reporter". Ugh. Definitely going to let the companies advertising with her of my displeasure. --[Lance] -- Celebrate The Circle http://www.celebratethecircle.org/ Carolina Spirit Quest http://www.carolinaspiritquest.org/ My LiveJournal http://www.livejournal.com/users/labrown/ GPG Fingerprint: 409B A409 A38D 92BF 15D9 6EEE 9A82 F2AC 69AC 07B9 CACert.org Assurer -- TriLUG mailing list : http://www.trilug.org/mailman/listinfo/trilug TriLUG Organizational FAQ : http://trilug.org/faq/ TriLUG Member Services FAQ : http://members.trilug.org/services_faq/ TriLUG PGP Keyring : http://trilug.org/~chrish/trilug.asc -- TriLUG mailing list : http://www.trilug.org/mailman/listinfo/trilug TriLUG Organizational FAQ : http://trilug.org/faq/ TriLUG Member Services FAQ : http://members.trilug.org/services_faq/ TriLUG PGP Keyring : http://trilug.org/~chrish/trilug.asc
