Quoted from vid1900:Of course he would.
That makes him look good.
I take it you were never a member of your college chess club?
Gotta agree with Vid on this one. That article came from somewhere else. WSJ is very well known for taking press releases and stories from other rags around the globe, then butchering them and publishing. I was involved in more than one case that made the WSJ in one fashion or another, in each case, I could track the story back to it's origination because the very same misquotes and mistakes were in each version. They have very few actual reporters......most everything they publish is a regurgitation of work from someone else. One thing reporters are good at is NOT telling an accurate story. During my days in law enforcement and fire service, I have been mis-quoted and misrepresented more times than you can imagine. I can count on one hand the number of times a story was original, well written, and correct from start to finish....and mostly that was because I wrote it for them. If the public only knew how many time they get things twisted and wrong, they would be shocked.
