MacBook hijack story prompts criticism

Yesterday Washingto ost.com posted a video of a couple of hackers allegedly launching a security attack agai t a MacBook. The video and the accompanying story by reporter Brian Kre received to of criticism from commenters. That prompted Kre to post a follow-up defending his reporting -- which prompted even more criticism. I don't pretend to be a hardware or security expert, so I can't tell you whether the video is a fake or not. What I do find interesting is how the blogo here policed this "story," proving once again that you can't get away with much out here.
