Considering the byline on this wired article, I'd be cautious about ascribing any accuracy to it. This is pre-scandal lehrer. I have no idea how much review Wired has done of his previous work for them, but it's very much a reader-beware situation.
- gojomo 12y agoLehrer was mostly knocked for plagiarism (including self-plagiarism), rather than fabrication, if I recall correctly. Wired pledged to review his works for them and add editorial notes where appropriate. A longer Lehrer article with similar themes (referenced by the Wired piece) remains up at the NYTimes without significant corrections. So, this is probably as reliable as average Wired/NYTimes content.
