A brief political comment.
In a race I wasn't watching[1], Joe Lieberman's campaign website went down and he complained that it was the victim of a DOS attack by horrid left-wing bloggers.
And the media reported it straight, as that - DOS attack.
The site is pingable.
The site is responding in 0.3 seconds to requests on port 80.
Other sites on the same machine are working just fine.
No, the problem is that Joe Lieberman DIDN'T PAY HIS BILL and his site is down because he hasn't paid the hosting company.
Does NOBODY check facts? It takes 15 seconds to confirm that Lieberman is LYING THROUGH HIS TEETH, AGAIN. Why did NOT ONE media outlet that thought this was a story worth covering do that check?
Take a look for yourself, at joe2006.com
Remember, you can't spell "Lieberman" without "Lie".
[1]: This was brought to my attention in a friendslocked post. I'm not even going to say by whom, unless that person feels like telling the world.
