Thanks to the observant Steve Ruble, we now know that Gene Marks’ commentary on Forbes has been yanked. Well, maybe not. Maybe it is just a technical glitch.
I hope Gene writes something new and reflective about his earlier thoughts and the comments on it. This is a moment in time where he can make a positive contribution.
(My original commentary is here.)
UPDATED: Unyanked, it is.
Link works again. And Marks’ comments remain obtuse.
Indeed the link works. And I too wonder now whether they have editors at Forbes. It’s hard to imagine a real magazine accepting a contribution like this that is not just naive, but disgustingly, superciliously naive. I couldn’t finish the piece. Everyone should have the right to express their views, but no one should have the right to be that stupid and have a platform like Forbes.
