Love the title of the linked piece, "Apple’s Star Chamber: An abusive judge and her prosecutor friend besiege the tech maker".
Note also that the piece is related to the issue we've been discussing, whether or not the publishers illegally conspired, but isn't directly about that; it's about the appropriateness of the court ordered monitor. If an opinion piece by WSJ (which the article helpfully points out is owned by News Corp. which owns one of those publishers) is evidence of anything, it's evidence of the appointment of an inappropriate monitor, but not that the publishers never colluded. Nice shift of the goal posts though.

I would have thought that a lawyer would have had a bit more reading comprehension skills that that. I specifically said, that the various WSJ pieces bring together the various lines of argument and that it is a good place to start. If you are actually interested in seeing the evidence, then you need to go back through the multitude of articles and follow the links in those articles. Some articles are pure opinion pieces and other articles include links to other original stories. If you aren't interested, then why in the world would I ever waste my time doing your work for you?
As far as pure evidence goes, I doubt one will find much evidence one way or the other on the internet, just various people's opinion. I've seen some evidence, such as Job's email to Murdoch (which turned out not to be the smoking gun that some claimed before it came out) or Judge Cote's endorsement letter for Bromwich's confirmation hearing, but not much else. There is evidence that Judge Cote tends to decide winners and losers early in a case, but that evidence is simply lawyers posting reviews of her. There is evidence that it is likely that she wrote much of her opinion before the actual trial actually started. Pass that, what evidence do you expect me to produce and what evidence are you willing/able to produce? After all, it is a two way street.
