A Follow-up on the Lieberman Hacking Lie

[Contrary1]

"Update: Now the Lamont campaign's blog has linked to a cache (which means an older copy) of the Lieberman website. So apparently the Lieberman campaign can put statements up on their supposedly hacked site, but didn't link to the cache of their site. And the Lieberman camp still hasn't accepted the Lamont campaign's offer to help them with their technical glitc. This stinks.

More on this: It looks like this could be simple incompetence on the Lieberman campaign's part. They aren't apparently running a load-balancer or a firewall. In case you're wondering, Dan Geary is the web genius at Dewey Square who is in charge of hosting Joe2006.com. I've written about Dewey Square before. Now aside from corporate lobbying and campaign work, they are Beltway screw-up artists extraordinaire, apparently.

Even more: Paul Kiel's coverage gets even worse. Just pathetic.

Here's an email from a technical contact. If you are a reporter working on this story, read this or consult the technical reporter at your paper. Bottom line, it shouldn't have taken the Lieberman camp more than an hour to fix this..."
