Description:	Linux and open source technology should be a good news story for everyone. However, the way these topics are presented in the media often leaves enthusiasts unhappy. There is a widespread belief that open source alternatives are neglected in favour of commercial products; that coverage often distorts the facts and exaggerates conflict rather than offering insight; and that the right-wing bias of much Australian media dooms the open source community to being dismissed as a kook minority led by some cult figure from Scandinavia whose name no-one can pronounce. The reality is more complex, as reality usually is. Drawing on my own personal experience over nearly two decades covering the technology scene in Australia and internationally, I want to examine some key issues in this area: * Is there an evident bias against covering open source by technology media and general media? * Do editors avoid open source topics because of commercial pressure from advertisers? * Why did I once ask Linus Torvalds if he was available as a hired guest for parties? * How does the decentralised and collaborative nature of open source make life more difficult for journalists? * How has Apple displaced Linux as a go-to topic when online publications are keen for traffic? * Does it matter if the Daily Telegraph gets everything about Linux wrong when we have the entire Internet at our disposal? * What can open source developers and enthusiasts do to ensure that their projects get covered accurately and fairly by the media? markdown
