Memo to Forbes: Leaks do not ‘confirm’ an Apple rumor

I don’t care how many clicks it generates, Gordon Kelly needs to find a better verb.

Gordon Kelly only ‘confirms’ himself. We live with a 24 hour media circus that rewards partisanship, hyperbole and unchecked facts with no accountability.

If I knew the next iPhone was going to look like the one depicted, I’d have an easier time believing the rumored 78M iPhones in the fall. But Gordon Kelly’s “confirmation” likely negates the possibility iPhone 7 will have a glass back.

With so many leaks being “confirmed”, one will soon need hip waders to venture into the Forbes cesspool – uh, website.
Forbes has a couple of real winners (whiners?) covering Apple and it expects me to turn off my ad blocker for the privilege of viewing that nonsense? In their dreams.
