Secure Programmer: Keep an Eye on Inputs

Holy Shit.
The American company that bought copyright extentions for us all is caught plagiarizing yet another time!
The ghosts of the Lion King vs Jungle Taitei and Atlantis vs Nadia debacles rear their ugly heads once again. However, this time it's an American corporation against the French. The French aren't nearly as passive as the dumb-as-shit shou-ga-nai Japanese, so the upcoming lawsuits will prove interesting.
As CEOs lay off American workers and pad their wallets in the name of globalism, they are shipping their lies to the world. The dishonesty of American corporations is really quite spectacular. Thanks to globalism and America's imperialistic foreign policy, we are spreading our festering, corrupt corporate culture to the rest of the world. First it was the third world. Now you are next, Eurotrash! So, sit back and enjoy being taken for a ride.

Journalist Lambasts French War Coverage
Tue Dec 30, 5:52 AM ET
By ELAINE GANLEY, Associated Press Writer
PARIS - Reporter Alain Hertoghe's book accused the French press of not being objective in its coverage of the U.S.-led war in Iraq (news - web sites). His newspaper fired him.
The book, "La Guerre a Outrances" (The War of Outrages), criticizes the French reporting for continually predicting the war would end badly for the U.S.-led coalition.
"Readers can't understand why the Americans won the war," Hertoghe said in a telephone interview. "The French press wasn't neutral."
The book, published Oct. 15, charges French reporters were more patriotic than journalistic and what was written amounted to disinformation.
It examines daily coverage by five major French dailies, including Hertoghe's own La Croix, in the three weeks from the first strikes on Baghdad on March 20 to April 9 when Saddam Hussein (news - web sites)'s regime fell.
"As soon as there were a couple of wounded, of dead, they were talking about Vietnam, Stalingrad," Hertoghe said.
In contrast, work by journalists traveling with U.S. troops indicated that "the war was advancing well," he said.
Hertoghe, a 44-year-old Belgian, said reporters reflected the emotional high in France more than realities on the battlefield, becoming caught up in France's central role in leading the opposition to the war at the United Nations (news - web sites).
"The French public was so carried away," he said. The journalists, he wrote in the book, "dreamed of an American defeat."
Hertoghe, who covered the 1991 Gulf War (news - web sites) and the presidential campaign that put President Bush (news - web sites) in the White House, was assistant editor-in-chief of La Croix's online version during the Iraq war.
Besides war coverage in La Croix, the book examines that of the independent Le Monde, the conservative Le Figaro, the leftist Liberation and the regional daily Ouest-France, which has the largest circulation in France.
Over three weeks, the five papers carried 29 headlines condemning Saddam's dictatorship and 135 blaming Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair (news - web sites).
Hertoghe was fired on Dec.15 for a "loss of confidence" following publication of the book. La Croix, in a letter, cited four points, including damaging the newspaper's reputation, Hertoghe said.
La Croix refused to comment.
Efforts for comment from Le Monde -- the paper Hertoghe targeted most severely -- also were unsuccessful, with the international editor away on vacation. A Paris-based reporter cited in the book did not answer his phone.
Only a free newspaper handed out in the Metro, "20 Minutes," has so far reviewed Hertoghe's book.
"The silence is deafening" in France, although there have been rave reviews in Belgium, said Ronald Blunden, editorial director at Hertoghe's publishing house, Calmann-Levy.
