A pointer to:
http://www.ncworldmag.com/ncworld/ncw-11-1997/ncw-11-running.html
which is a critique by Nick Petreley of news coverage of Appraising
Microsoft Conference. Several of the articles he mentioned were from
Zdnet, which recently announced a partnership with MSNBC. Jamie

At www.ncworldmag.com, Nick Petreley has a column where he talks about
the coverage given the Appraising Microsoft conference. It is titled
"Bring us the heads of the news editors!" Basically, he sumarizes what
he feels was the biased coverage found in the press, particularly the
computer press. He also critiqued the Bill Gates column that was
published in the WSJ. A worthwhile column (IMHO) which pointed out the
bias present in the media concerning Microsoft.
