Dan Dorfman is the name (one of them, anyway) of the columnist who was fired a few years ago for having positions in stocks he wrote about. There was also a case of a WSJ columnist who wrote the "Heard on the Street" column back in the mid-80s who took positions or advised others to take positions ahead of his columns and he or his friends made some nice money before being discovered. I was personally burned by one of those columns, having been long some calls that were in the money and dropped precipitously two days before expiration due to one of his columns. I forget his name. We will all forget HG's name one of these days too. We would do well to forget it ASAP, and not pay attention to him. His latest column is a joke: "I was right once, so I'm right again."

Gee, I'm speechless.
