Who does something like edits Wikipedia...

The New York Times on Sunday reports the story of Brian Chase, a former operations manager at a small delivery company in Nashville. Brian Chase was involved in an internet scandal, as he posted false information about John Seigenthaler Sr., a former editor of The Tennessean in Nashville, saying that he was involved in the assassinations of John and Robert Kennedy. Chase said that the post was just a joke, and he also stated that he thought Wikipedia was a "gag" website. For a while Seigenthaler searched for the person responsible for the post and did not get very far, but when Daniel Brandt, frequent critic of the website, did search he traced the post to the the company where Chase worked. Chase came forward Thursday and stated that he was truly sorry, even quitting his job to eliminate the risk of any harm to the company.


Well I wanted to relate it to some sort of a scandal that was caused by stupidity or ignorance but I couldn't really find anything. Can I have a little help with this one?
