is any different than any other media reporting. The only reason Bott's
on
a rant is because this time it was against a company he likes, he's just
as
guilty of doing the very thing he is now, oh, so righteously indignant
about.
Not too long ago, Apple accidentally included iPhone Configuration
Utility
in it's software update. It was an honest mistake by the company and
was removed a few hours later.
Of course, that was well after Bott, in high dudgeon, spent 700 words
ranting on Apple for sneaking software onto people's computers.
Wanna take a bet on whether Bott bothered to actually call anyone at
Apple to do some fact checking before he ran with his story?
Ed Bott: Pot. Kettle. Black.
