The New York Times has the story now, along with The Associated Press, Reuters, The Guardian, all the major TV networks.

Wouldn't you be happier living in Moscow?
What is it about an appeal to the majority that yet fails you Andrew. Many media report the story therefore it must be true, or many media outlets report the story therefore the Russkies must have done it. Its a nonsense argument.

I demand a public apology Randers, the Wopo was forced to come out with the truth, man that could be a first!

As federal officials investigate suspicious Internet activity found last week on a Vermont utility computer, they are finding evidence that the incident is not linked to any Russian government effort to target or hack the utility, according to experts and officials close to the investigation.

An employee at Burlington Electric Department was checking his Yahoo email account Friday and triggered an alert indicating that his computer had connected to a suspicious IP address associated by authorities with the Russian hacking operation that infiltrated the Democratic Party. Officials told the company that traffic with this particular address is found elsewhere in the country and is not unique to Burlington Electric, suggesting the company wasn’t being targeted by the Russians. Indeed, officials say it is possible that the traffic is benign, since this particular IP address is not always connected to malicious activity.

Typical.
Insult and denigrate others on the basis of their perspective--- regardless of the convincing support offered for the same--- then act as though you did nothing when the truth is revealed.

Hoser.

For trying our patience with your vain and unwavering support for a source of false news.

The original Washington Post story was based on reports from Burlington Electric officials. The story was later updated and clarified.

The Washington Post does not create "false news" -- unlike Zero Hedge, RT, Infowars, Breitbart and other right-wing platforms.

Your judgment, as usual, is faulty and illogical.
