Wikipedia Criticised by Its Co-founder
wikinerd writes "Wikipedia is under criticism by its co-founder Larry Sanger who has left the project. He warns of a possible future fork due to Wikipedia's Anti-Elitism and he presents his view on Wikipedia's (lack of) reliability. New wikis on various subjects have already emerged, with some of them being complete forks of Wikipedia. Critical articles on Wikipedia are also being published by other sources."
Someone that founds an encyclopedia has an interest in knowledge? Wow, get your tin foil hat on now!
An amazing amount of untrue drivel is 'reported in non-NNN media outlets.' Substitute in your preferrred NNN.

'The torture at Abu G.' is just a sticker in the anti-US/Bush scrapbook. One with slightly more durable adhesive holding it onto the page than some of the others, i.e. the Dan Rather fabrications, etc.
It's worth noting that the 'Abu G scandal' primarily was spun up in the same propaganda mill as a lot of the other stickers in that scrapbook: CBS News. Kinda the flipside of FOX News, many people would maintain.
But, whatever. .
