Come On...Think A Little Bit
3 August 2004
Winer continues to distort and listen to distortions. He continues to cite big-media companies, apparently assuming they report accurately. Just because the information on a computer was three years old, that doesn’t mean that it wasn’t ”new” information in our search for terrorists, their planning methods and their targets. As he would say in his most condescending tone, ”Dave, you’re better than this.”
It would be no different from discovering offensive information on one of Winer’s old computers. It might be old information on the computer, but it would be new information to those who have just learned of it. It would shed (new) light on what kind of threat was posed. That’s an example of how we are piecing together the way terrorists work. The information Dave and others are calling ”old” was discovered last week!
