You make a good point.  John Kerr on the WFTL list wrote:

I agree this kind of publicity Linux does not need, but what we saw in
the video that was linked to was only part of the story.  There is a
longer version where we find out that:
1. The college says that Ubuntu is not a problem, she can use it at school.
2. Verizon will send a technician to get her connected to the Internet

see it at <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Qj8p-PEwbI>

Someone wanted the world to see only the problem, not the solution.

Someone else pointed out that even the REVISED version of the video
contains an attack on Linux.
