Good call. I too was wondering why forums were not included in the article.

The article makes a reference to Rathergate, but doesn't mention that this was accomplished on a forum (this forum), rather than a blog.

Good point. I’ll try to contact the author of this article or the editor of the Atlas Society. Do you have a link to the FR thread that exposed Rathergate? As I recall, the typewriter snafu was exposed on LGF which is mentioned in the article.

Since Rather has dredged up “Rathergate” again here’s an encore of some 3yr. old FR threads to commemorate the event for your viewing pleasure:

I’ll try to get some credit for inter-net forums (especially FR) with this author and editor.
