The Wall Street Journal has been responsible for some incredibly irresponsible reporting with matters regarding Apple over the last few weeks. First of all publishing some imaginary figures and then pulling them without explanation. I found this Gem watching the WWDC of 1997
It seems there’s been no love lost between the companies since way back in 1997. During Apple’s worldwide developer conference in 1997, Steve jobs was taking questions from members of the audience and the second question in was about the Wall Street Journal.
