Of the two articles that I've read, neither get all the facts right - but the BBC one is pretty terrible. It doesn't mention the poll, refers to Jimmy's statement as coming "from a blog" (misattributing a source, unless it was crossposted from his talkpage), using a strange and distracting image, failing to describe the scope of the problem, incorrectly stating that the proposal comes from Jimmy, etc.
Can't imagine why the article doesn't have a byline...
