Barrons has had a long and consistent record of bashing IOM.

If you recall, last summer they managed to print a very negative article on IOM just before options expiration for at least three months in a row. I'm not saying it was anything other than what it was (no conspiracy insinuations intended). But, it is reasonable to consider the source on this one (imho). Nothing new, nothing different - still, I'd like to see IOM get past these types of remarks in this level of publication.

At least the WSJ didn't make a negative comment about IOM when they were included in the top performance list the other day. That is a least a step in the right direction.

The *height of Barrons depths* was the article that reprinted, as breaking news, the standard cautionary boilerplate from the 10Q (K?) -"the sky could fall on us tomorrow and/or on our suppliers, and/or...ect.".

For those following the IOM story, I think that one clearly showed either incredibly inept reporting, or some considerable degree of negative bias.
