Story: EDS: The single point of failure

Good Journalism requires balance, this article is totally biased, just to have a swing at EDS. To what end I ask myself. There is no mention of all the Government Projects EDS have delivered successfully for example for the Inland Revenue for 10 years, or non government for GM in Luton for longer than that. There is no mention of all the people EDS employs in the UK (in excess of 15000) and the contribution to the UK Exchequer. Keep this going and the media will help make thousands redundant. Yes obviously these are 2 major blunders but the media seem to jump on EDS's shortcomings and virtually ignore other companies. And Microsoft who’s product was involved barely gets a mention. If it were not so serious it’s laughable. Balance, honesty are scare resources in the media world these days. I wonder is it just a co-incidence that IBM, SUN and Cognos advertise heavily with ZDNET. Tell the other side of the story as well, don't let integrity be sold to the highest bidder. Pretty shameful flawed article all things considered.
