9. New Yorker, 1988, Annals of Democracy
A guy wrote an article about the dangers of computer fraud waaaay back then and experts at the time expressed concern about voter fraud via computers, and then govt of Texas even predicted that someone would try to steal the presidency.

so, that Newsweek article is interesting since it appears the person who wrote it has no knowledge of DECADES of concern about this issue, or else is simply trying to practice a little "project truth" style journalism.

The New Yorker is notorious for fact checking and research. What does the person writing for Newsweek have to back up this article, other than "of course no one would do that?"
