I think you are mischaracterizing my statement. At no point did I suggest he should violate journalistic integrity by belying his sources' confidence.

I do say that it's inappropriate to expect implicit trust after all his previous integrity failures (conjecture as fact, etc). I want to believe this article. I do believe it. But I also can't rely on it, as his track record shows that given the topic of computer security, he will even present unfounded speculation to Congress as fact if given the opportunity.

Can you please do as you say, and provide specific citations and examples of his conjectures framed as fact?
