Ah, but they did link to it.  First they offered an editorial summary which
(as Ron pointed out) presented a vastly different view of the article.  Then
they offered a link to the actual article.  Go for it Ron... I am deeply
disturbed by companies that purport to be news companies that can't generate
their own articles.  In this case, they only partially claim to be a news
organization.  If you search their site enough, you will find that they are
really trying to be a "targeted search engine".  They have similar sites for
IBM, Compaq, Sun and a slew of others...
