Re: "It really doesn't make sense for a CEO to have meetings with indiv. cos. or analysts before a string of significant announcements. The proper way to disseminate the information is to the public newswires. So, I commend AOL and Case for cancelling" the meetings."

You obviously have no management training or experience. If you did you would recognize that it makes even less sense to schedule meetings, cancel them and then lie about it. That portends a different scenario entirely. It presents Case and Offline flailing about, reacting to an environment in which both are becoming increasingly irrelevant and anachronistic.

If you read the article I cited you would recognize that AOL is trying to forestall a big hit to their overvalued stock with ultimately meaningless PR events. LT it won't work.

BTW, I don't short stocks, although few would be so rewarding a short as AOL.

Since you were the Solon who posted AOL's spin (which no serious person believed), maybe you could give us some more straight poop on AOL.

Hopefully some which you are not presently eating, of course.
