Yea, at some level I don't expect honesty out of journalists: there's no sainthood exam to become a journalist; they're people, and people aren't generally honest. It's just bizarre to see how credulous HN is when it comes to swallowing stuff like this (relatively) uncritically.
> The author is also female. Not that that is relevant to any point except your use of pronoun.
Thanks for pointing this out. I commented on a separate post about Facebook which was written by a "Jim Davies" and I think there was a crossed wire in there.
