Not a brilliant move

Dennis York reported a few weeks ago that GOP gov candidate Mark Green was the victim of a Wikipedia drive-by. Green's entry in the on-line, free flow encyclopedia was less than flattering, and York attributed that to some Democrats. (Personally, I think Scott Walker did it.)

Wikipedia tampering may be tempting for political staffers with too much time on their hands, but not worth it. Kari Chisholm at Politics and Technology reports:

A few months ago, a bunch of congressional staffers got busted trying to screw around with Wikipedia. And today, the campaign manager for Georgia gubernatorial candidate Cathy Cox - a guy unfortunately named Morton Brilliant - has been fired after getting caught altering the Wikipedia biography of her opponent, Mark Taylor.
