| Yeah right quote: "We'll play around with the Web to put a good face on it all," notes one anonymous executive. "But, really, all we want is a renewal deal with cable that gives us a bigger piece of the pie."
Such satire passed off as fact makes questionable credibility for the rest of the story which may well be true but most definitely is biased. I am disappointed that Mr. La Franco saw fit to insert this distraction and let be known in no uncertain terms where he stands on the issue. Leaves me wondering if any parts of this story have been omitted. Guess we will never know. -- When yer a pioneer, you're bound to get a few arrows in the butt.

 KoolMoeAw ManPremium join:2001-02-14 Annapolis, MD | Your bias is just as telling. Why is this satire? It appears to me to be a direct quote (note the quotes!). "Insert this distraction"? Doesn't seem to be a distraction - seems to be the whole point of the article! Of course it's anonymous - this exec wouldn't last 10 min after the story came out if the name was revealed! Though of course, it does make it appear convenient. I have more faith in well-established rags, like the Red-Herring, and doubt they would manufacture such quotes as truth. Of course, I could be wrong, but your criticism has as much basis as you claim the article to have. KM |

Well established doesn't mean trust worthy...look at 60 Minutes. -- When yer a pioneer, you're bound to get a few arrows in the butt. |
