Inside Intel



Summary: When the media lies as a matter of "doing business" and when buzzwords or misleading hype waves replace meaningful terminology somebody needs to call out the "BS"; we hope that leaks from the inside will help highlight the sad state of 'professional' (salaried) 'journalism' in 2020

THE information to be shown here over the next few hours is refuting what corporate (and pseudo-technical) media or so-called 'news' sites such as ZDNet have been telling us.



"Actual, concrete evidence we're about to publicly share will help combat misinformation spread by sites like ZDNet for financial gain."They're good at lying about people and they're dinosaurs pretending to be reporters, in effect telling whatever lies need to be sold in order for them to be salaried.

This video is about the media. Mostly the media. It is a little rant about my (very personal) past experiences and an article we published last night. Actual, concrete evidence we're about to publicly share will help combat misinformation spread by sites like ZDNet for financial gain. They expect people to blindly accept (at face value) what they say because of their trade name; in reality, however, their name should be a badge of shame.
