Last paragraph is inaccurate

The last paragraph inaccurately reads: «In recent years, Ås has made headlines in Norway by promoting 9/11 conspiracy theories, namely suggesting that the attacks had not actually occurred, but were a lie instigated by the United States government[1] and speculating that the video images of the attacks had been digitally manipulated by means of data animation[2].»

This is based on one single journalist's interpretation of one talk in Horten, Norway, and it is an interpretation that Ås herself claims is wrong, as what she said was more like «There are even people who think that ...».

In this way, even Wikipedia could be said to be «speculating that the video images of the attacks had been digitally manipulated by means of data animation», in that Wikipedia in this article is doing the same as Ås did: Reporting what other people think. 212.17.141.54 (talk) 00:32, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
