"Honest and blunt" now means "would report Jews to the Nazis"
Did AOL exec Jason Calacanis attend the same conference everyone else did? Because he says:
At the D Conference this week two of the most important executives in the world—Bill Gates and Terry Semel—were total honest and blunt about the issues facing their companies.
Really? Terry Semel? Because, as we've been reporting, the Wall Street Journal says:
One attendee asked Mr. Semel if Yahoo would have cooperated with Nazi Germany the same way it has with China. His response: "Yahoo has a basic obligation not to have a point of view on basic content, and to present content ... and aggregate things and to allow people to make their own choices. I don't know how I would have felt then."
How many times should I run this quote before the implication sticks?
