The link Glenn Reynolds refers to isn't at the cnn.com homepage right now.

It looks as if Wizbangblog released this story into the blogosphere.

I tried googling for the Netscape story, but didn't get anything returned, so I don't know how Netscape released its statement.

I bet that employee was a temp, so no really big statement by netscape. Just a hunch.

FR caught the Houston Chronicle pulling a similar stunt about a month ago. It was that pic of the little girl with the pigtails put up in a "W" shape. The link to it was something like \\image\brainwashedgirl. After a few pajamagrams in the Chronicle's email box, they changed it.

While I take their word that CNN itself had nothing to do with this (it would be moronic for them to do that), it's disengenuous for them to totally disassociate themselves with Netscape. They are sister companies. AOL bought Netscape before AOL and Time Warner (CNN's parent) merged.

Good. I hope he chuckles himself blue sitting around all day watching Oprah trying to figure out how he's going to pay his bills.

Glad he was fired. Now can someone figure out how to ''fire'' Michael Moore?

CNN had no knowledge of this until it surfaced on other Web sites.

Right. Uh-huh. Of course. /sarcasm

Didn't read the whole thing but caught the last part where they said the guy was terminated.

Wonder where they buried him?
