One thing after another.... Anti-Kerry book defaced at online store By Ina Fried CNET News.com August 9, 2004, 3:12 PM PT Add your opinion Forward in Format for Sign up for In an apparent case of Internet graffiti at an online retailer, the cover of a book critical of John Kerry's war record was altered to appear as if the tract supports the Massachusetts senator. The book cover for the anti-Kerry book "Unfit for Command" was somehow changed Monday on Web bookseller Barnesandnoble.com to read "Fit for Command." The rest of the information on the page appeared genuine, offering ordering information and a description of the book, which is subtitled "Swift Boat Veterans Speak Out against John Kerry." By late Monday afternoon, the book cover appeared correctly on the site. A Barnes & Noble representative did not immediately have a comment on the issue when contacted by CNET News.com. zdnet.com.com
