[comp.society.women] Re article on TV image of hackers

Recently in comp.society.women, someone raised some questions about the
image of computer hackers on TV.  I tried to post an article in
reply, but the moderator decided that the article was "too
political".  I disagree, and I do not think that the article
is "political" at all.  The moderator suggested that I post it
to a different group and tell people in this group to look in
the other newsgroup.  This, I felt, was inappropriate, because
it is not related to the discussions in the other groups.  Also,
it is unreasonable to ask people to sort through a large number
of articles to find it.  

If you would like a copy of the article, please send me e-mail,
and I'll send it to the list of people who reply.  Please
include a return address with your signature and do not rely
on the "r" command, which has a knack for doing really creative and
imaginative things to email addresses.
