I've already written them asking them to correct the part in this article
that lists Debian as a "Company that sells manuals and support for Linux".

The funny thing is the way he goes on about Nader's "ideology" and then he
totally ignores all reality/evidence and "proves" that OSS can't possibly
work using nothing but theory. "But the earth must be flat, because
otherwise my theories would be wrong!" :-P

An interesting and detailed piece of FUD. Also mentions several other
organizations who support OSS as a benefit to consumers. Actually, it
mostly concentrates on Nader, and is clearly a hard right-wing
publication.
