RE: Vicious Attack on Bored Senator just to Gain Readership!

blc1839 4th May 2010

First of all ZDNet, why are we reading this kind of crap here? This is supposed to be a tech blog - Oh right, the poor bored senator was using a laptop to commit this heinous act of treason. I mean, come on - how many times have you opened an email and been surprised by it's unexpected content? It is very plain to see that Caroline McCarthy (CNET News) really got all her facts lined up before going to press with this story. If you view the video with an unbiased view point as I did, it's plain to see that yes the senator was viewing a bikini shot of some females that had been manipulated by video editing to appear that they 'could' have been nude, but the editing strongly attempts to lead you in the direction the 'news' crew would have you think. And if you take their manipulations and run with them, you come to their wanted conclusion: "News site spies naughty pics on lawmaker's laptop". A more fitting title might be, "Bored Senator checking email on laptop during debate - Not doing his job".

If he is so damn bored, then maybe he should be replaced with someone who will take the job seriously and take part in the debate instead of surfing on his laptop.
