Netscape/CNN site calls Bush an asshole - employee fired

"It was an image produced by an employee of another company," CNN spokesman Matt Furman told WorldNetDaily. "We didn't know anything about it and had nothing to do with it.

"Most importantly, it was never on CNN.com. … It's our picture, but it never appeared on our site."

CNN has fingered a Netscape employee as the culprit, and Netscape agrees.

"As soon as the situation was discovered, it was immediately corrected, and the employee has been terminated," said a Netscape spokesman. "CNN had nothing to do with the images, the terms, or the postings. We apologize to CNN and to anyone else offended in this matter."

We need to find out who this poor guy is who got fired and find him a job!

I want to go to the WHITE HOUSE and stand out front callling Bush an asshole for an hour straight. Let's do it in shifts. 1 person...continuous passing of the torch...for 4 years.

ASSHOOLLLEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!

an ASSHOLE! Orwellian times when you get fired for telling the TRUTH!

n/t

when you already have write access to the files as a part of your job it's not really 'hacking'

partisan election commissioners

If they've modified the code to push results one way or the other, it's hacking.

If they are changing the values in an unprotected spreadsheet (and it seems this is case with the Diebold systems), it's not hacking.

It's fraud.

...i hope the guy finds a sympathetic employer. I appluad him. He could have always made up some way to play it off like code, like Natalie did with F-U-T-K

Netscape probably gave that guy a hefty severance for that!

As many times as the freaks in the Bush misAdministration have FUCKED UP, from Rumshelld to Condasleeza Rice, they weren't fired.

So in this case, this dude "fucked up" SOOOOO bad, give him what he deserves....A DOUBLE RAISE AND DOUBLE PROMOTION!

:bounce:

and no one would have suspected what he said unless anyone else there could read it.


On edit LOL I wondered what would happen if everyone spammed Bush's e mail with "You're an ASSHOLE" e mails.
