editThis article lacks sources; needs full citations; and needs updating. I have been adding some potential source resources. --NYScholar 02:58, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
- Still does, and is POV to boot. Abb3w 20:35, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
- ok, but please remember that the guy is a convicted felon (19 counts). So please don't bite the newbies who have probably gone a bit overboard. Also please don't sing you name to the article.

- Don't know how that happened; probably bumped the autosign macro below the editing box. Note that I usually manually fixed width "tt" my signature when attaching it intentionally. Abb3w 18:54, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
Prosecution
editCitation 15 refers not to a news article, but rather a comment some unknown person posted. Copied below. This is not a valid source.
" Comments get your facts straight
"Nacchio was targeted by the Bush administration as retribution for Qwest's refusal to collaborate with the NSA in a massive programme of illegal, warrantless wiretapping started in early 2001."
 
 What a bunch of factless biased rubbish.
 I normally enjoy reading your articles ... but thay also normally have a little more truth to them.
 
 Read the constitution, read the patriot act before deciding what is and isnt legal.
 
 In times of war there is a different set of guidlines, none of those have been broken.

Is there any weight to claims about the blogosphere that his prosecution was politically motivated, stemming from his refusal to hand over customer records? I'm inclined to doubt that there is but it may be worth looking into. Reb42 (talk) 06:10, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
- Ah, but there's always a war, somewhere. Same reasoning as passports becoming permamently required. 75.70.89.124 (talk) 05:40, 10 May 2013 (UTC)
Insider trading defense; NSA involvement
edithttp://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-switch/wp/2013/09/30/a-ceo-who-resisted-nsa-spying-is-out-of-prison-and-he-feels-vindicated-by-snowden-leaks/ http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702303983904579093173797712780.html
Among other sources. His defense that the insider trading case was politically motivated was thrown out on the grounds that it involved classified information(Of what he alleged was criminal behavior by the NSA). In light of recent evidence disclosed by Snowden, those claims are being substantiated. Nacchio's page probably needs to be updated.
I think this is was a big part of his case(important in the insider trading section), but I'm not sure if I could write it NPOV. Figured I'd kick this around first. Rook42 (talk) 20:15, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
