LinuxWorld Senior Editorial Staff Resigns 344
sachmet writes "In light of the interview with Fuat Kirccali, James Turner has announced on his blog the immediate resignation of the LinuxWorld senior editorial staff." From the post: "We regret that Sys-Con Media has
been unable to apply a standard of journalistic ethics that we can comfortably operate
under. We feel that recent articles published with the consent of Sys-Con Media fail to
meet minimum generally accepted journalistic codes, and because the management of
Sys-Con Media has failed to acknowledge that the articles are by all informed judgment
ethically unsupportable, we have decided we must find other avenues for our work."

You have your tabloids mixed up. The Enquirer no longer does Bigfoot photos. If we PJ put next to J Lo or even Wil Wheaton, they might publish the picture - but not Bigfoot. What you were searching for was the Weekly World News, still the home of the politician-endorsing space alien, Bat Boy, and other denizens of the amazing world in which we live.
I've seen others make this mistake, too. I hope it doesn't continue. Imagine the disappointment of someone wanting to read about Bat Boy, buying the Enquirer by mistake and only finding John Travolta and Tom Cruise. It would be tragic.

Wow. I hadn't even realized they were dating!
Maybe they'll make a movie together, and I can miss both at once!
