The poor editing of tech news never ceases to amaze me: Micron Technology Inc., the largest U.S. maker of memory chips, may offer incentive programs to personal-computer makers to get rid of excess inventory, a Micron vice president said. The company doesn't have current plans to offer price incentives to PC makers, said Kipp Bedard, Micron's vice president of corporate affairs. We all know that "doesn't have current plans" is weaseling, but for the reporter to write down, well, that means that they might, is simply a waste of space and time. And it's as inexcusably misleading as a lead sentence could be.
