Quite the variety coming out of BNZ/NAB.
Heh I have a fair idea of who that might be. But I'll let him out himself :)

She strikes me as a bit of a noob. The reliably amusing Instaputz has been keeping score.
Oy... someone really needs to engrave this phrase on Althouse's laptop: DON'T FEED THE TROLLS AND WING-NUTS. She is a really excellent law-blogger, but lately she seems to be rising to every bit of bait flame-trolling wingnuts put out there. Why does she bother?

And as for 'reliably amusing Instaputz' - thanks for reminding me why about 95% of the American blogs I currently check out regularly are about anything except politics.

Well, with all due disrespect to the Beeb, Russell, you'd think its employees would be too busy trying to restore their own credibility to be flushing Wikipedia's down the loo.
If you're talking about the faked phone-ins and the attempt to fit up the Queen, that's an example of how a loss of trust in one part of the enterprise diminishes trust in every other part.
But I think BBC Interactive has done quite well here. It reported the story like every other media organisation. And then they realised there were a few dodgy edits from within their own walls and the editor addressed it. I think AP has reported its own whoopsies too. I'm not holding my breath for Fox.
And apart from anything else, they're not "flushing Wikipedia's credibility down the loo". Wikipedia seems quite chuffed about the whole scanner thing.
