Microsoft opposes media access to  depositions

 BY CARA GARRETSON, IDG NEWS SERVICE
(February 19, 2002)

Four depositions have already been taken in preparation for the remedy
hearing between Microsoft Corp. and  the nine states that didn't settle
in the antitrust case, and Microsoft wants to make sure the media
doesn't get  access to the transcripts.

============================

Imagine that.  The Press has been licking Gates behind for years and
years, especially when they took sides against OS/2 in the 90's.

Now Gates tells them to "go away."

No wonder the Press's credibility is lower than low.

I really don't know who's lower here, Microsoft, the media, or slime
mold.
