Semi - That article was a new low, even for Mike Magee. (I think I just made a oxymoron?) No doubt this will be pointed to as more "evidence".


Oh it's obvious to me why. There's an interesting story that I've never told on SI or iHub. Way back when Mike McGee worked for the Register, I wrote an e-mail to one of his co-workers Andrew Thomas. It was about some story he wrote, and in the e-mail, I happened to mention about the fact that Mike appeared to have an anti-intel bias. Andrew wrote back, and what he said was enlightening, and has been in the back of my mind on every story that I've read from McGee since then. In response to my Mike comment, he wrote:

"Yeah, he hates them".

I swear, that's a direct quote from a person who worked with him....... Surprised? Me Neither.
