Getting It WrongGetting It WrongPosted Oct 13, 2003 15:10 UTC (Mon) by ncm (subscriber, #165)Parent article: Copyright Lawsuit Is Turnabout for SCO (New York Times) If news stories just got most of the details wrong, it wouldn't be so bad. The real problem is that they fill their columns with meaningless blather, and miss out on the real story. The real SCO story isn't the lawsuit or its details. The real story is Canopy selling its failed investments to SCO for stock and then selling the stock. The real story is Microsoft and Sun pumping money into SCO to try to tar Linux. The real story is criminal fraud passed off as mundane contractual and license conflicts. The real real story has nothing to do with SCO or Linux. It doesn't have a headline, and there are no details to get right or even wrong. The whole story has been spiked, and you won't read about it in the NYT or the WSJ. What you do find is just there to distract you. Fnord.
