Comment It was a financial news show (Score 1) 78
The piece was directed at the business community
and not at geeks. Of course the didn't mention GNU
or open source, those are not the kind of things
the business types watching the show would be overly interested in. They want a quick overview
and if they like what they see then they'll do
some digging on their own. If CNN did a 30 or 60
minute story on Linux then GNU, open source and the entire Linux community should, of course, be
mentioned.
I suspect some of you were expecting too much from
a 15 minute sound byte.
