The piece was directed at the business community and not at geeks. Of course the didn't mention GNU or open source, those are not the kind of things the business types watching the show would be overly interested in.

If CNN did a 30 or 60 minute story on Linux then GNU, open source and the entire Linux community should, of course, be mentioned.
I suspect some of you were expecting too much from a 15 minute sound byte.

The first movie my father took me to see was 2001.
(he didn't go to movies much and we saw only the best of the best.)
