You know, there really isn't anything wrong with the BBC being left wing. Aug 20, 07 - 11:30 am If there were not so few Mac related news aggregators, I would stop viewing this site altogether. Here, (yet again!
) we have a story that isn't a story at all, followed by long commentary from MDN. If you go to the site MDN is talking about you will see that all this women did was *mention* that Paul Thurrott's Windows site (what her piece was about), also reviews Mac OS-X from time to time. This is completely benign *mention*, not a critique, not an affirmation or promotion of Thurrott.
She unfortunately used the word "truth" when referring to Thurrotts statements in general and MDN took this personally and created this rant about it. This is nuts. MDN is starting to appear as if it is run and composed by middle-aged school teachers who have had too much coffee in the morning, and just "feel too much" about everything.
Passion is good but it rarely has a place in good reporting. If whomever is behind MDN wants to publish their personal (biased?, crazy?
), opinions on things, they should do what everyone else does and create a user account to comment on the ends of articles. The "voice" used to present the articles and the "MDN take" needs to be about a hundred times more professional and less "passionate" for anyone to take them seriously. It's got to the point where if I find a story here, I immediately go to another site to find out what the real story is because you just can't trust a journalist that injects their own self into the news like this.
