Keywords:Yellow journalism Has anyone else read the recent Abernathy article reprinted in CUD 2.05 yet. It seems to be up to his usual low standard. It describes a new company being formed to bring "Fortune 500 management" to the Internet. One quote that particularlly stuck out for me was how the Internet has " become a frequent companion to controversy ". Now is it just me, or does it seem like the only controversy lately about the Internet been Joe Abernathy's articles? You'll be happy to hear that the "computer network matrix" has become the " favored arena for hackers ". Also Joe reports, the " IBM syle " management plans to bring " day to day management and monitoring to the network " and bring the " first formal fee structure on the network " John Henders Vancouver,B.C.
