LinuxToday Editor Apologizes For Astroturfing

Posted by Hemos on from the have-to-come-clean dept.

Thanks to Dean Pannell (and Paul Ferris for the initial head's up) for pointing out the apology and statement of fact from Kevin Reichard, the Executive Editor of LinuxToday. I think the argument that people would know that "George Tirebiter" was merely a contrivance is weak, but whatever. You can read the previous stories in the astroturf [?] ing saga.

  1. apology accepted! by bricriu · · Score: 5, Funny

    I personally think that these fine gentlemen have, by virtue of their effusive apology, proved themselves to be well and truly sorry, and that we should all forgive them their minor trespasses. Who's with me?

    -Kevin Richard... I mean, uh Ben. That's it. Ben.
