...publishing on the Internet has its risks, as Brock Meeks learned. Meeks, a reporter by day for Communications Daily in Washington, by night publishes an electronic broadsheet called CyberWire Dispatch, in which he tells readers what he thinks is really going on. Last April he investigated an Internet advertisement offering $500 or more just for receiving junk E-mail and uncovered what he called a bait-and-switch scheme operated by "a slick direct-mail baron" in Ohio.
