Lazy and wrong

Another day of unmitigated journalistic dumbassery on the Intarweb.

Mac news sources are broadly reporting that Adobe is shipping Acrobat 8 today. We had that news posted back in *September*, when it *actually happened.* All that Adobe announced today is that Acrobat 8 is available. Why they're doing it again doesn't make much sense, but hey, they've gotten their money's worth from the wire release, that's for sure.

Then the other one that's got my goat is the announcement from some in the game press that Postal 2 is available for the Mac. It's been available for quite some time -- in fact, I reviewed it back in March. All they're doing is seeing a press release from Macgamestore.com that you can now buy it as a digital download and sloppily presuming that this is its first release.

Some days I just grind my teeth...
