Wow. I really don't remember anyone in any thread saying that race was a factor in why no one wanted to believe the card is real. I DO remember a few posts saying that if race were a factor, it was only in getting the story more news coverage and that if the sellers were caucasian this wouldn't be a story at all.

Sorry - I'm paraphrasing those posters because I have zero desire or inclination to go back and reread all the hundreds of posts in the different threads on the issue. I think I pretty much got the gist of the comments right, but feel free to ring in if I misspoke for anyone.

Anyway, could THAT be the kind of comment that this journalist is using to imply that some on this board did think that race played a role in this situation???
