- Zickie, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I'm not a big fan of Minisoft, but responsible accurate journalism is of paramount importance, particularly nowadays with more and more spin. In principle I have a big problem with this. It's the sort of reporting I've noticed in the US and in the UK. It's not journmlism, it's marketing and it's not why I buy magazines or newspapers. I"ll personally be doing my own research and sending an email to Joe Fay.

Still, it would be nice to know how they came to be in possession of an email that is disputed by it's alleged author. Personally, if they were "played" and sent a fraudulent email then I think they should tell us where that email came from. Then the sender could either confirm or dispute it's accuracy. At minimum they should confirm in writing that this is the way they receieved the email as it leaves one to wonder in a worst case scenario if they in fact were played or whether or not Orlowski simply made the email up.
