We don't need this, please

The world is already full of imbeciles (let alone journalists). Why do you want to incorporate yourself to that group, trying to tarnish the hard labour of Wikipedia collaborators?

Shame on you, Shane

Shame on everyone

Shame on Shane? Shame on everyone who fell for it! For believing something they read on the internet - from Wikipedia, of all places - without bothering to actually check and see if it was true!

Wikipedia is editted by people with their own agendas and opinions. Most of them act honestly and try to keep their additions accurate and truthful. Some, however, aren't quite so scrupulous. It's the nature of the beast - the anonymnity of the internet makes it possible, like it or not. The real question should be : How much else on Wikipedia is false?

I think you're a fucking

I think you're a fucking asshole.

the AP like 1 way streets but want a car with reverse

For the AP to be recently attacking on-line media the way it has to been then found to be hoaxed by the very type of sites that they "supposedly" want sorted out...They shout no but then do it themselves...we should listen why again?
