No, you should have ignored the story, because there wasn't one. It's
quite rich that your story criticizes journalists for doing exactly what
you did: give Vulis far more attention than he deserves. In case you've
forgotten what you wrote:
What does Vulis's ouster
mean to the community that
sprang up around this mailing
list, of which he had been a
member for nearly three
years? Many of his peers think
he did it for attention or
notoriety; one longtime
list-denizen declined to be
interviewed for fear of
encouraging him. (If that's his
goal, he's already succeeded.
Will Rodger from Inter at ctive
Week and Lewis Koch from
Upside Magazine are writing
about this.)
As much as I'm tempted, I believe no further comment is necessary.
