There was a Windows 4. Better known as Windows NT 4. Which, of course, is something like 20 years past end of life.

The above quote was on many major news sites. But as of late July 19th, 2024 a search for “Crowdstrike is aware of reports of crashes on Windows 4 related to the Falcon sensor” will yield lots of hits. But clicking through, some of them do not have that quote.

I suspect someone managed to spoof a bunch of “journalists”.

Yet another data point demonstrating you cannot trust the media.

  1. Spoofing journalists …. someday that phrase may come to have the same meaning as “dynamiting fish in a barrel.”

  2. It is also another data point demonstrating that journalists are lazy, stupid and ignorant as well as biased.

  3. Their brainwashed to follow narratives. As mentioned above, spoofing them is not exactly a tough job if someone understands a subject.
    We need a lot more of it.
    More ridicule could only be beneficial to the MSM at this juncture. Poor souls they be.
