PJ at Groklaw said it best:

"...this is the man who wrote about the "evils" of anonymous blogging in "Attack of the Blogs", where he said that blogs are “the prized platform of an online lynch mob spouting liberty but spewing lies, libel and invective.”

Lyons is a hypocrite, who, as PJ had demonstrated, wrote some very misleading stuff about both Groklaw and the SCO vs IBM lawsuit.

Mark Blafkin from ACT has funny comments about this- http://blog.actonline.org/2007/08/say-it-aint-so-.html

***PJ is now railing on Mr. Lyons for being a hypocrite. Seems that Lyons wrote an article for Forbes lambasting anonymous bloggers awhile back. Definitely hypocritical...but not nearly as hypocritical as PJ being all high-and-mighty about it.

What is really surprising is that she found a way to insinuate that FSJ was all part of some Microsoft-led conspiracy...never saw that one coming ;-)***

Well, she didn't just 'make that up' as you seem to imply.

Regular readers of Groklaw (and I count myself in that group since a couple of months after groklaw started) know that Lyons had a long history of writing misleading articles, that always touted MS's arguments and talking points, while deliberate misquoting and mis-characterizing the other side of the SCO-IBM lawsuit.

Speaking of the SCO lawsuit, IP Central has been curiously silent about that particular issue. Would someone from IP Central care to comment about that?
