Whether you believe in the ... Whether you believe in the theory of this being a good thing, in practice their information, even on very high profile people, was both incredibly incomplete and often terribly misleading.

Kimberly, since you've already been ... Kimberly, since you've already been a contractor yourself, I'm a bit surprised you don't mention the most obvious missing part of your equation - reputation.
