I think that Adrian Karatnycky offered a better critique; he said,
"A phlegmatically organized piece that makes bold 
assertions--mainly--negative, and then seems to retreat from them in the 
end. At root, an article that proves more enigmatic than the subject."

I generally concur and would like to add ...

a link to Julia Ioffe, the writer's, website:
http://www.juliaioffe.com/

and that Ioffe was featured on the Leonard Lopate show on 12/3/2009 on 
WNYC: Underreported: Swine Flu and Ukraine's Presidential Election

The podcast can be found here:

There are a number of inaccuracies lobbed throughout the 15 minute 
interview.

fyi,

MP
