Scoble puts out another fire based on a poorly sourced ComputerWorld story - note that Geek News Central does the right thing, and posts a nice retraction. Now back to ComputerWorld, to see if they can fix their end.

This is one of the things that drives me bats about the mainstream media - both news/politics wise and IT wise. They like to pose as defenders of truth and the public, but it's clear that - in way too many cases - they just make crap up. Blogs may not be a replacement for news, but they sure are providing a useful fact checking service.
