Slashdot Mirror
Leaked Microsoft Dossier on Journalist
Ludvig A. Norin writes "Wired journalist Fred Vogelstein blogs about how he accidentally got hold of a dossier on himself produced by Microsoft's PR firm, Waggener Edstrom. While it's not unusual for PR people to create background files on journalists, it's notable that this one leaked, and got commented by Waggener Edstrom's Frank Shaw and Wired Magazine editor in chief Chris Anderson. Makes for an interesting read — there's lots to learn from the inner workings of the Microsoft PR machinery." Someone please send me mine? I bet it's really friendly!

no, taco is little more than a common leech. he makes big money by having other people submit articles, moderate them and redesign his page. it's even to the point where he's having other people be the editors by the firehose. wtf does he do here besides suck down a paycheck?
the sad thing is that so many are just happy to jump on his little bandwagon and do his bidding thinking that they're cool. no one gives a damn if you have mod points on slashdot, losers.
Microsoft doesn't need to have a dossier on CmdrTaco or slashdot. Once upon a time, this site might have had some influence or respectability as a threat against Microsoft.
But nowadays it's fallen so fast, it's not worth Microsoft's time. CmdrTaco makes himself and slashdot look bad enough without any prodding from others.
