Chronicles of the Celtic-Lemur Galactic War

An accurate history of the war started by Emmuttmax, the lemur leader of Madagascar, allied with the aliens of the Great Nebula in Lemur. Avian leader Rafcop and his Raptor Air Patrols gave the lemurs secret air support. This formidable alliance was opposed by the warriors of Celtic and Thane Security (CATS), led by Thamus, Thane of Thomond.

Have the Thanes co-opted 'Wired' reporter?

A dispatch from EMMUTTMAX (Lemur Alliance)

Alert stumbler Oswald Glinkmeyer notified lemur headquarters of a recent post on the online magazine, Wired, in which the reporter takes a Thane-like jab at lemurs. Such uncalled for slurs in a usually well-thought-of publication may stoke the fires of recent world-wide protests aimed at Thane bigotry.
An investigation is underway to determine if this is just an isolated incident of bad reporting or a propaganda-for-money scheme similar to Bush administration antics.
The article by Lore Sjorberg is about Wikipedia and contains the following paragraph:
Well, Wikipedia exists in a state of quantum significance flux.
It's simultaneously a shining, flawless collection of incontrovertible information, and a debased pile of meaningless words thrown together by uneducated lemurs with political agendas. It simply cannot exist in any state between these two extremes. You can test this yourself by expressing a reasonable opinion about the site in any public space. Whatever words you type, they will be interpreted by readers as supporting one of these two opposing views.
